With some terrific road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to soak up all that Albacete, 45 miles away, has to offer. Albacete Circuit, Abelardo Sanchez Park and Botanical Garden of Castilla-La Mancha alone justify the drive out here. Don’t skip Lorca either! Just 55 miles away, Lorca Castle, Plaza de Toros and Museo de Bordados del Paso Azul are must-sees here.
