Leaving from El Bierzo
El Bierzo is a basin ringed by mountains in the west of the province, with Ponferrada as its capital and Bembibre in the Upper Bierzo. It has its own hospital, vineyards with their own designation of origin and Las Médulas, and for many trips it looks to Galicia before León.
Which way it goes
From Ponferrada and Bembibre the route to Madrid is the A-6, climbing the Manzanal pass towards Astorga and continuing via Benavente and Tordesillas to the Guadarrama. It is a long trip in which the Manzanal and the mountains near Madrid are the tricky stretches in winter; for Barajas the route joins the M-40 or M-50 on reaching Madrid.
Aeropuerto Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas, seen from León
From León province people fly from Barajas, from Asturias or, in El Bierzo, from Galicia; León airport has few routes. For early flights, a car from home avoids spending the night before away.
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: For Las Médulas, allow plenty of time for the return: walks around the site tend to take longer than planned and there is no alternative transport if the pickup is missed.
Airport pickup
For arrivals, the driver waits in the terminal with a name sign and helps with your luggage. We track the flight number, so a delay costs nothing extra within the terminal’s complimentary waiting time.
