With some great road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to soak up all that Astorga, 20 miles away, has to offer. Astorga Cathedral should be at the top of your list here. City Hall and Museo del Chocolate are excellent attractions too. Located 20 miles away, Ponferrada is another popular option. If you swing by, don’t miss Castillo de los Templarios, Plaza del Ayuntamiento and Bodega del Abad.
