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
To the south, the A-4 crosses Despeñaperros towards Jaén and Córdoba, and the AVE runs to Andalusia from Ciudad Real and Puertollano. To the north, the N-401 climbs to Toledo through the Montes; to the east, Albacete and Cuenca are reached by road across La Mancha, with no convenient direct train from the capital.
Cuenca, seen from Ciudad Real
Cuenca is reached from the north-east of the province via Campo de Criptana and Mota del Cuervo, across the Cuenca part of La Mancha. From Ciudad Real itself it is several hours by road with no direct train.
On arrival: Cuenca y la Serranía
Cuenca city, above the gorges of the Júcar and Huécar rivers, is the gateway to the Serranía, a mountain area of pine forests and small villages stretching towards Teruel and Guadalajara. The city holds the hospital, the high-speed station and public offices, and gets tourists all year round.
Tip: If you are going to the Almagro festival, say when the performance ends: pickup is set for when you come out, not for a rough time.
