Re: Burgos to Santiago Hi and welcome to the forum.
The distance is 481 km - how long depends on how many km you walk each day - but I would allow around three weeks anyway.

Re: Burgos to Santiago Hi Judy ~
Congratulations on your upcoming Camino and welcome to the Forum. The distance from Burgos to Santiago is approximately 489 kms. A great resource to use for distances and planning is http://www.godesalco.com/plan/frances . Your duration depends greatly on how many kms you walk per day. Most people seem to average 20-25 kms, so that would suggest a 20-25 day walk. If you like to plan (as I do) you can use the Godesalco tool to identify each overnight and gauge exactly how long you'll walk. Best, though, not to over-plan your Camino so that you have room for some spontaneity, particularly if you find a place (like, say, Leon) where you'd like to stay an extra night.
Buen camino!
