Before you book, this may help
- Driving a private hire car in Cuenca: a province with no conventional railway, the Fernando Zóbel station seven kilometres out, Barajas or Manises depending on the district, and how each job arrives and is paid
Cuenca is the province where the car with a driver replaces a train that no longer exists: the conventional line closed and the only station is the Fernando Zóbel high-speed station, seven kilometres from the city with no rail link, so every village of the Serranía, the Alcarria and the Mancha conquense reaches it by car.
- The Serranía de Cuenca without your own car: Ciudad Encantada, Uña, Tragacete and the source of the river Cuervo with a driver from Cuenca and from the Fernando Zóbel AVE
The upper Serranía de Cuenca is a natural park of pine forest, gorges and limestone rocks stretching north of the capital towards Teruel and Guadalajara, and its most visited places line up along the Tragacete road: the Ventano del Diablo, the Ciudad Encantada, Uña lagoon, Las Majadas with its Callejones, Tragacete and, at the end, the source of the river Cuervo.
- Hotels and rural houses in the Serranía, Alarcón and Cuenca's old town: how to offer transfers to guests arriving by AVE at Fernando Zóbel or by air at Barajas and Manises
Accommodation in Cuenca province takes in more and more guests without a car: they arrive by AVE at Cuenca-Fernando Zóbel, a station in open country seven kilometres from the old quarter with no rail link, or by air at Barajas or Manises, {{ruta:cuenca-a-aeropuerto-madrid-barajas:km}} and {{ruta:cuenca-a-aeropuerto-valencia:km}} from the capital.
