Alarcon is located next to N-III road, in the province of Cuenca, about 15 km away from the A3 motorway, both from the side of Valencia and Madrid, which puts us in a unique position because its accesses are extraordinary. We are in the region known as the Manchuela Conquense, located between the foothills of the Sierra low Basin and La Mancha. And defined by the course of the two rivers Cabriel and Júcar; the latter is the one that is most linked to the history of Alarcon, as its gorges which have defended the strength of the town for centuries.
Upon arrival in the fortress of Alarcon understand its military value and because of its nickname as the "unconquerable", the natural environment ensured for centuries the power of their position in the historical overview, it helped their lords who completed their natural defences with extraordinary artificial defences.
