Manzanares is in Valdepeñas, Manzanares y La Solana. 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 AVE de Ciudad Real, seen from Ciudad Real
Ciudad Real's high-speed station is on the Madrid–Seville line, with long-distance trains and Avant shuttles to Madrid. It is the reference station for most of the province, so early in the day passengers arrive from Daimiel, Almagro, Manzanares or Valdepeñas with no other way of getting there on time.
On arrival: 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.
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.
