Cuenca is easily accessible by train, bus, and car, making it a convenient destination for both domestic and international travelers. The city is served by the high-speed AVE train line, which connects it to Madrid in under an hour and to Valencia in just over an hour, making day trips or weekend getaways from these major cities feasible.
Once in Cuenca, the city’s small size makes it easy to navigate on foot. Public transportation is available in the form of local buses, but most of the old town’s attractions can be explored by walking. For those looking to explore the surrounding natural parks and rural areas, car rentals and guided tours are available.
Cuenca’s central location in Spain also makes it a good base for exploring other nearby destinations such as the historic city of Toledo, the natural beauty of the Serranía de Cuenca, and the larger urban centers of Madrid and Valencia.
