With some awesome road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to explore all that Albacete, 17 miles away, has to offer. Albacete Circuit, Abelardo Sanchez Park and Botanical Garden of Castilla-La Mancha alone make the drive out worthwhile. Situated 20 miles away, Alarcon is another popular option. If you visit, don’t miss Castillo de Alarcon, Sendero Hoz de Alarcon and Santa Maria Church.
