Leaving from Tarancón y la Mancha Alta
Tarancón is the hub of the west of the province, where the A-40 from Cuenca meets the A-3, and the Cuenca town closest to Madrid. With Horcajo de Santiago and the villages around it, it forms a farming and service area that looks more to Madrid than to its own capital.
Which way it goes
Trips within Cuenca province are long and almost always by road: since the conventional line closed there has been no rail link between towns, and buses connect few places with few departures. The most requested trips run from La Mancha and La Manchuela to the capital — hospital, high-speed station, paperwork — and from the city to Fernando Zóbel station on the outskirts.
Casas Colgadas y casco antiguo de Cuenca, seen from Cuenca
The Hanging Houses overlook the Huécar gorge in Cuenca's old town, a World Heritage Site, and one of them houses the Museum of Spanish Abstract Art. The streets of the upper town are narrow and steep and parking is scarce, so it is worth agreeing on the pickup point.
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.
When demand peaks
- Holy Week in Cuenca (Holy Week): Cuenca's Holy Week, of international tourist interest, and the Religious Music Week fill the city with visitors. Processions close the streets of the old town, so it is best to set the pickup outside the routes.
- San Mateo fiestas (September): The San Mateo fiestas, around 21 September, commemorate the city's reconquest and fill the old town, with young bulls in the Plaza Mayor. There are traffic closures in the upper town and crowds at night.
Tip: If you are flying from the south-east of the province, compare Barajas with Valencia airport: from Motilla or Quintanar del Rey, Manises can be closer.
What the price includes
- Door-to-door pickup and help with luggage.
