Lagunas de Ruidera from Albacete
The province's leisure destinations are either in the capital, like the fair, or far from any regular bus line, like the river Mundo or the Júcar gorge. Either way, the hard part is getting back, so it is best to book the return with the outbound trip.

Frequently asked questions
Is it better by the hour or as a return trip?
By the hour, almost always. The point of the place is stopping at several spots, and a single return trip to one lagoon leaves the rest out. Four or five hours covers the upper and lower lagoons properly.
Do you go in winter too?
Yes, and that is when the waterfalls look best. In summer the road and the car parks fill up by midday, so leaving early changes the day completely.
