Before you book, this may help
- Puertollano and the Alcudia valley to Madrid: when the AVE pays off and when the car with a driver to Atocha, Chamartín, Estación Sur or IFEMA
Puertollano is the province's last high-speed stop before Andalusia, and for one person going to central Madrid in daytime the AVE is the best option: a little over an hour to Atocha, with the station inside the town.
- Valdepeñas, Manzanares and La Solana: to Madrid and Barajas with the Ciudad Real AVE or by car on the A-4, and the wine route
Valdepeñas and Manzanares sit on the A-4 and have conventional railway stations, but no high-speed one: the nearest AVE leaves from Ciudad Real, {{ruta:valdepenas-a-estacion-ave-ciudad-real:km}} from Valdepeñas, {{ruta:manzanares-a-estacion-ave-ciudad-real:km}} from Manzanares and {{ruta:la-solana-a-estacion-ave-ciudad-real:km}} from La Solana, and no bus reaches that station in time for the first train.
