The route

A loop through Tierra de Campos using the towpath of the Ramal de Campos of the Canal de Castilla. You leave Medina de Rioseco, next to the canal dock, and ride up the bank, between poplars and locks, towards Tamariz de Campos. The way back is on farm tracks between cereal fields, with the wide-open horizon of the meseta. Compacted dirt on the towpath and land-consolidation tracks, with no elevation. Water and bars in Medina de Rioseco and Tamariz; in between, very little. Best in spring and autumn. In summer there is a lot of sun, and the meseta wind can weigh more than any hill.

Track designed by our editorial team on OpenStreetMap (ODbL).

Before you set off, check the state of the road or track and follow the traffic rules. Enjoy the ride.
