The Camino del Cid is a cultural tourist route that crosses Spain from northwest to southeast and follows the literary and historical footsteps of Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, the Cid Campeador, the famous medieval knight of the 11th century. The main travel guide for this itinerary is the Cantar de mío Cid, the great Hispanic medieval epic poem that narrates the adventures of the Campeador, written at the end of the 12th century or beginning of the 13th century. The places, landscapes and castles that appear in the Cantar de mío Cid form the backbone of this itinerary. It also covers some places that do not appear in the Cantar but are linked to the historical figure of the Cid. Overall, it is an essentially rural route where tranquility and direct contact with the land are guaranteed. Due to its length (about 1,400 kilometers of trails and 2,000 kilometers of roads), it is divided into themed routes of approximately 50 to 300 km linked together, so that you can accommodate the trip to your vacation days.
