Durante la mayor parte de las últimas 3 décadas se han realizado excavaciones para aprender más sobre nuestra prehistoria. En las cuevas fuera de la ciudad, se han descubierto los restos de los primeros humanos; algunos de tan solo 800.000 años. La mayoría de los descubrimientos han sido transferidos al Museo de la Evolución Humana de Burgos.

History

Atapuerca, sus prolíficos descubrimientos prehistóricos a un lado, sigue siendo un pequeño puesto avanzado. Fue aquí donde el rey García de Nájera-Pamplona perdió la vida en una batalla contra su hermano Fernando I de León el 1 de septiembre de 1054. El gran marcador de piedra en el campo antes de la ciudad que marca su fin; los lugareños se refieren a él como "el fin de rey".

The Road

Desde Atapuerca, el camino sube hacia arriba en las montañas de Atapuerca antes de descender de nuevo a Cardeñuela.

You must stay here! Best albergue atmosphere yet on the Camino. Estrella is simply wonderful. She is a pilgrim too and understands what we need. Amazing space & communal dinner 👍👍

Please add Albergue INpulso Atapuerca to this app. It is a fabulous place to stay. The owner is a pilgrim and has thought of everything in renovating this former restaurant/hotel. It is clean, organized, has a lovely ambience and Estrella, the owner, is very welcoming.

We stayed at the Hotel Rural Papasal while on the Camino Santiago. We had reserved with Maria (the wife of the husband/wife team owners) via a few WhatsApp texts and a WhatsApp phone call from the states months before. All was completely set for our stay and they couldn’t have been more accommodating and kind. The hotel is a lovely old pension they purchased in 2021. The room was clean, the bed comfortable, and shower hot. We had the Menu of the Day that was delicious as well as the breakfast. We totally recommend staying here.

At the end of town, Meson Las Cuevas has an excellent pilgrim menu with great 1st and second choices for 13 euro weekdays.
Good atmosphere and great service. Worth the short walk.

The close restaurant, Comosapians, with the great reviews is closed.

Town shop was open in the morning and evening (not during siesta time). On the main road, on a corner. Not amazing but you can pick up some basics.

We stayed the night and had dinner at the Hotel Papasol. It’s under new ownership since 2020. The husband and wife are extremely friendly and helpful. The accommodations were clean and comfortable and the home cooked dinner was delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed the one night stay there.
