Motilla del Palancar is in La Manchuela conquense. What the area is like and what trips start there
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.
Cuenca, seen from Cuenca
Between Cuenca's towns buses are scarce and often go via the capital or Madrid; between two towns in La Mancha or La Manchuela there may be no direct line at all.
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 catching the AVE in Cuenca, remember that Fernando Zóbel is outside the city: allow for the drive from home to the station, not just the train time.
