Leaving from Tierra de Alba
Alba de Tormes, on the banks of the Tormes south-east of the capital, is known for holding the tomb of Saint Teresa of Ávila in the Carmelite convent, which draws pilgrims and visitors all year round. Its residents rely on Salamanca for the hospital, the station and most errands.
Which way it goes
Salamanca is a large province with its population concentrated in the capital, and the roads fan out from it: the A-62 to Ciudad Rodrigo, the A-66 to Guijuelo and Béjar, the A-50 to Peñaranda. There is hardly any direct transport between the market towns, so the most common internal trips are from the villages into Salamanca: hospital, station, university and errands.
Estación de esquí de La Covatilla (Béjar), seen from Salamanca
La Covatilla is the ski resort of the Sierra de Béjar, in the south of the province, reached by a mountain road from Béjar. Its season depends on each winter's snowfall, and after snow chains may be needed on the final stretch.
On arrival: Sierra de Béjar
Béjar, at the southern tip of the province and already in the mountains, was a textile town and is now also the gateway to La Covatilla ski resort. It is far from the capital, so Salamanca's hospital, the railway station or the airport always mean a long trip.
When demand peaks
- Ski season (winter, depending on snow): When La Covatilla opens, skiers from Salamanca, Madrid and Extremadura head up to Béjar at weekends. The access road may require chains, so it is worth checking the resort's status before setting off.
Tip: If you are staying in Salamanca's old town, give the exact address: traffic is restricted and the driver stops at the nearest access point.
What the price includes
- Door-to-door pickup and help with luggage.
