If you’re searching for day-trip inspiration, we’ve got some ideas. Situated 17 miles away, Cuenca is worth jumping in the car for. See the sights starting with Hanging Houses of Cuenca, Cuenca Cathedral and Museum of Spanish Abstract Art. The locals will also probably point you in the direction of Alarcon, 20 miles away. If you only see one attraction here, make sure it’s Castillo de Alarcon. (But we’d also highly recommend Sendero Hoz de Alarcon and Santa Maria Church.)
