As it's all about survival water was clearly important not just in the days of Atapuerca but right up to today so first things first. Water stops.
I'm a big fan of Cardenuela Rio Pico and it's big tap is in the centre of the town.
The next tap is 2km down the road in orbaneja. The cafe / albergue opens at 8am until October then it's 11am. Today is October 3rd and so I had some water.
Finally before we hit the taps of the town in Castanes we hit the airport taps.
All good taps and hopefully you'll have drunk a litre between each and not made the sad mistake of just carrying water.
The times are roughly 2km 25 mins, 1km 12 mins and then 3km around the airport. Thus we arrive at the scrap metal, then traffic lights, cross to the left for the cafe with the bus stop and the fountain.
So easy to jump a number 4 bus to the centre if you haven't the legs to walk along the river. If you have got the legs you'll be rewarded and all the need to do is walk along the side street, past the play park and second fountain, over a wee bridge then turn right. Go past the allotment ceer left over a bridge into a woody area next to the motorway. Follow the path to veer a bit diagonal right and then under the motorway and you'll be on your way.
I love this walk as my appetite grows with every step. I've taken to visiting a cafe near Burgos CF. I cross the river by the outdoor gym and more taps. Part of a new build complex has been given over to a cafe or two and very simple understated and delicious.
Today I took the bus as the El Cid festival was in town and it'sy last day.
Had a coffee as the bus turns off vitoria and then walked around being a tourist.
The cathedral gets closer so quickly
I love the city.
So many angles of the cathedral, I could be here all day.
I had to go so over the bridge I went.
I waved Burgos bye bye and see you soon.
