With some awesome day trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to experience everything that Penafiel, 25 miles away, has to offer. Among your first few stops here ought to be Bodegas Protos, Bodegas Tinto Pesquera and Castillo de Peñafiel. Locals will also likely point you in the direction of Medina de Rioseco, 25 miles away. If you only see one attraction here, make sure it’s Canal de Castilla. (But we’re also big fans of Museo de Semana Santa and Montealegre de Campos Castle.)
