Just came across an article describing the Camino Castellano-Aragonés, which is really a gem, especially if you like small towns with lots of things to see, solitude, stunning scenery, and Romanesque (I'm thinking of you @VNwalking)

I walked this route in 2016, and I have to say it is really one of my favorites. The detour through the Cañon de Río Lobos to enjoy the gorge as well as the romanesque church was a high point, as was a day in the city of Soria. Soria is a town no one knows about but has a lot to see and do and a fabulous ambiente.
It's 300 km from Gallur to where it merges with the Francés in Burgos (actually you need a little dip on the Lana and/or San Olav) but you could easily start in Zaragoza (would add two days). Or if you like starting on the coast, you could do what Annie and I did and walk the Ruta del Ebro till Zaragoza and then on to the Castellano-Aragonés.

Don't take my word for it, @alansykes raves about it too! Buen camino, Laurie
p.s. This is one camino for which a GPS is, IMO, necessary.
Oh my goodness Laurie, what are you doing to me... darn, I really must learn how to speak Spanish... not just caminolingo... yikes...Hugs IngridJust came across an article describing the Camino Castellano-Aragonés, which is really a gem, especially if you like small towns with lots of things to see, solitude, stunning scenery, and Romanesque (I'm thinking of you @VNwalking)

I hear you and appreciate the kind thought! If the little jaunt from Santo Domingo de Silos to Burgos is anything to go on..........(I'm thinking of you @VNwalking)
This webpage has a bunch of links to GPX files for the Camino Castellano-Aragonés (at least for the part in Soria province):I am VERY VERY interested in doing this route
Does it start in Burgos?
Is there a map of it?
The Cañón de Río Lobos is indeed lovely, I walked it several times last year when I was staying in the small town of San Leonardo It is actually on this Camino.

I have done the Francés twice and this part looks AMAZING!!!!!!

Wow, Ingrid, that is amazing. I had never heard of this place, but with a little googling was able to find it.I spend an afternoon exploring the cave and the church. We were a group from a seminar that was concluding that day. 1 week of exploring the Templar Rose and Morning Star, at Flores del Camino. This was the last of 3 places we visited to see what we had been exploring throughout the seminar. This is a fascinating place, the cave itself is awe inspiring.
Hi, @ranthr,@peregrina2000, Chief Inspirer, Since I guess it will be at least one or two years until I will be allowed to go to Spain for a camino, and I will be 74, and not able to walk your distances, can you disign a camino for me about 20 km each day, where I can reach many of your excellent caminos, including the Vladience which I had to drop twice. Perhaps my last camino if I ever get there, walking caminos since 2005.
