Logroño Guide

Logroño It is the capital of The Rioja and it is in the north of the Iberian Peninsula. It has an extension of almost 80 square kilometers and it is a very beautiful city that has many green areas and a very important historical heritage, thanks in part to the fact that it is a key city on the Camino de Santiago, in addition to its gastronomy being fantastic.

The Santiago's road It is very important as it passes through Logroño and to do so you will cross the bridge and then go up the Old Rúa, pass by the “Albergue de los peregrinos”, by the Santiago Fountain until you reach the Revellín Walls, which give you access to the Puerta del Camino.
