Cuenca

Cuenca sits on a high plateau at 900m elevation in the mountains of Castilla-La Mancha, making it a destination for hill runners and mountain bikers. The Carrera del Pavo Cuenca and Cross Popular Cuenca Caravaning draw local runners to the compact town centre and surrounding scrubland, while the area's limestone ridges and forest tracks feed serious cyclists into multi-stage events like the Marcha Hermanos Herrada (120km) and Trofeo MTB Mariana (40km). Expect rolling, rocky terrain with steady climbs rather than Alpine gradient — the classic Spanish plateau running and enduro riding experience.
