Leaving from Ciudad Real y el Campo de Calatrava
The capital and the towns of the old Order of Calatrava lands make up the most populated area in the west of the province. Miguelturra is joined to Ciudad Real, and Almagro and Bolaños are a few kilometres away: most trips to the high-speed station, the General Hospital and the provincial offices start here.
Which way it goes
From Ciudad Real the road to Madrid is the A-41 to Puerto Lápice and then the A-4, which enters Madrid from the south. For Barajas the route continues on the M-40 or M-50 without crossing the centre. Malagón lies on the road to Toledo, the other way out to the north.
Estación Madrid-Puerta de Atocha, seen from Ciudad Real
The province has two high-speed stations and a major conventional rail junction, but they are in three different towns. From a town with no station, catching the first train of the day almost always depends on a car.
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: If you are catching the AVE at Ciudad Real or Puertollano, give the train time when booking: the driver works out the pickup so you reach the access check in good time.
What the price includes
- Door-to-door pickup and help with luggage.
- Complimentary waiting and flight or train tracking.
- Child restraint systems if you need them.
- The 10 % Spanish VAT on passenger transport.
