Geography of Burgos

Burgos occupies the north of the Castilian plateau, among the páramos, the headwaters of the Ebro and the mountains of the Sierra de la Demanda in the Iberian System. The climate is cold continental, with long winters. Alongside the cereal fields spread oak and beech woods and, above all, the great pine forests of the south-east —shared with Soria— which concentrate the summer wildfire risk. Fun fact: the Atapuerca sites have revealed the remains of the earliest hominins in Europe, and the Gothic cathedral is a World Heritage Site.
