Candeleda is in Valle del Tiétar. What the area is like and what trips start there
Which way it goes
From the Tiétar valley nobody goes up to Ávila to reach Madrid: the valley road continues towards San Martín de Valdeiglesias and enters Madrid from the south-west, or drivers drop down to the A-5 through Toledo province. For Barajas the route crosses Madrid on the M-40 or M-50.
Estación Madrid-Chamartín, seen from Ávila
Trains in Ávila province are conventional and infrequent, so missing one can mean waiting hours. It is best to leave with a margin, especially from La Moraña or Las Navas in winter.
On arrival: Madrid capital
The capital holds the stations, hospitals, trade fairs and most of the region's hotels. The pre-booked trips requested from here are those that leave the municipality: day trips, business transfers to neighbouring provinces and leisure in the southern metro area.
Tip: If you are going to Ávila's old town, name the gate in the wall nearest your destination: traffic inside is restricted and drop-off happens at the entrance.

Before you book, this may help
- Ávila to Madrid and Barajas: the conventional train from Ávila station or a car with a driver along the AP-51 and AP-6, and when each one makes sense
Ávila has a train to Madrid, but a conventional one: it leaves Ávila station, enters via El Escorial and ends at Chamartín, without reaching Atocha or Barajas directly and with gaps of hours between trains.
- Arévalo and La Moraña to Barajas, the Madrid stations and Valladolid airport: the A-6 in both directions, the Arévalo train and which way out suits each flight
Arévalo looks both ways along the A-6.
- Nuestra Señora de Sonsoles Hospital in Ávila: how to get to an appointment from Arenas de San Pedro, El Barco, Arévalo and the Tiétar valley, with waiting time and the trip home
Almost every appointment in Ávila province goes to Nuestra Señora de Sonsoles Hospital, south of the capital outside the walls, and the journey depends on which side of Gredos you live.
