Alcázar de San Juan is in La Mancha de Alcázar y Tomelloso. What the area is like and what trips start there
Which way it goes
Ciudad Real is one of the largest provinces in Spain and its towns are far apart: going from Puertollano to Alcázar de San Juan means crossing half the province. Trains link some pairs well but not all, and buses between the main towns are scarce. The most requested internal trips are from the towns to the high-speed stations of Ciudad Real and Puertollano and to each area's hospital.
Estación de Puertollano, seen from Ciudad Real
Puertollano is the last high-speed stop in the province before Andalusia, with Avant trains to Ciudad Real and Madrid and stops by trains to Córdoba and Seville. It serves the city and the south of the province, where there is little other transport to the station.
On arrival: Puertollano y el valle de Alcudia
Puertollano is the province's industrial city, with its petrochemical complex, and the main town of the hilly south that runs down to the Alcudia valley and the Sierra Madrona. It has its own hospital and high-speed station, so many trips connect with trains to Madrid or to Córdoba and Seville.
When demand peaks
- Holiday departures (Easter, summer and Christmas): At the start and end of the holidays, high-speed trains to Madrid and Andalusia and transfers to Barajas from all over the province fill up at the same time. The first flights and first trains of the day are the first to run out of space.
Tip: For Las Tablas de Daimiel, Ruidera or Calatrava la Nueva, book the return trip too: there are no taxis waiting there and no public transport to improvise a way back.
