Hi all,
If you happen to be in Burgos and require more hiking equipment/clothing, by all means visit Decathlon located outside the main centre of Burgos. Simply catch the FREE Bus (clearly emblazoned “HIPERCOR” on a yellow bus) which can be caught directly outside the Teatro Theatre which is directly opposite the monument of El Cid. The bus ride takes 10 mins and stops at the covered carpark with the Decathlon Store a mere 150 m walk (hard to miss). The bus comes around every 30-45 mins and also goes back into Burgos Centre. However......guys.....if you are like me i.e. 6ft 6 in and 140 kg, the forget about getting any shirts, jumpers or costs above 3XL. Seems they cater only for midgets . There is a Base store on Calle Madrid, not far from the bus station.....guess I’ll try there now!
