Så vidt øjet kan se, er det eneste, der holder El Burgo Ranero på landkortet, den forretning, som caminoen har bragt ind; hvede- og uldforretningen, der engang opretholdt den, er blevet fortrængt af mekanisering.

Selv om kirken i byen blev berøvet sine skatte for længe siden (nogle er bevaret i León katedralmuseum), ringer klokkerne stadig, og en stadig ældre menighed dukker op dagligt.

Notice

Hvis du er på gennemrejse på det rigtige tidspunkt af året (sidst i maj), skal du se nærmere på storkerederne på tårnet. Hvis du er heldig, kan du få et glimt af ungerne, der venter på frokost.

History

El Burgo Ranero skylder sin eksistens til både hvede og uld. Af de to var det hveden (og de medfølgende kornsiloer), der gav byen dens navn, selvom andre historikere siger, at navnet stammer fra den samme rod, som giver os ordet frø, rana; vådområderne i den anden ende af byen er fulde af dem. I det 10. århundrede blev får introduceret i massive mængder, så meget, at det var den største indtægtskilde for det meste af regionen. Flokkens vandring startede nordpå i bjergene og fortsatte sydpå til yderpunkterne af Extremadura.

The Road

Caminoen mellem El Burgo og Reliegos går ad en velplejet sti omkranset af træer. Disse træer er desværre på den forkerte side af stien, så på solrige sommerdage er du udsat: medbring rigelige mængder vand.

Whoever said that the trees are on the wrong (north) side of the path between El Burgo and Riliegos Is dead wrong -- unless several thousand trees have been transplanted since the comment was made. As of yesterday, October 10, 2024, the trees continue along the left (south) side of the path, continuing to shelter pilgrims from the sun

Perhaps the person who made the comment was from Australia and got north and south mixed up.

Stop here — you won’t regret it. The owners are lovely and work hard to make everything special. It is a tiny space but they pack a lot in there!

The cutest shop and family, so helpful. They had gluten free bread, spaghetti and made me a fresh gluten free breakfast sandwich, the best experience so far on the Camino for me !!!

Supermercado market La Tiendina de Sol is such a great shop for food and groceries. Good selection and served with such a smile and genuine friendly owners . They have travel size shampoo , conditioner etc , which seem not so easy to buy , in big supermarkets or pharmacies.

We stopped in this little supermarket and so glad we did! The owners are fantastic and really enjoy serving the pilgrims. So friendly and fun. They made us a couple sandwiches for lunch tomorrow and wrapped them up. Stop by and quench your thirst or fill your belly. This place makes you believe in kindness again!

We saw them today, well, maybe not babies - more like fluffy teenager storks. Lovely!

The truck stop was the best choice ever. Close to the Camino. 10 spotless, soundproof rooms. And, food available 24 hours a day. Good food. One of our best nights on the Camino - ever.
