Vivar del Cid, Medieval route and village in Burgos Province, Spain
The Way of El Cid extends across 3400 kilometers through eastern Spain, connecting historical sites from Vivar del Cid to the Mediterranean coast.
Vivar del Cid marks the birthplace of Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, an 11th-century knight who became a central figure in Spanish medieval history.
The route follows the narrative of The Song of El Cid, a 12th-century epic poem that documents the journeys and battles of the medieval hero.
Travelers can explore the route by bicycle, car, or foot, with specific sections designated for each mode of transportation across eight World Heritage sites.
The path includes five distinct phases corresponding to chapters from The Song of El Cid, with travelers receiving a Salvoconducto credential to mark their progress.
