Anyone know of nice places inland from Valencia City, within a 70 mile train journey or, travel time 1 hr?

please note that I am talking about Valencia in Spain,

I know that when I was staying in Valencia years ago, we visited the hanging houses in Cuenca:

It might be a bit further than you specify, but I do remember driving through gorgeous fields of sunflowers...

Thanks. Report It

RU talking about Venezuela? In Carabobo?

I know of a good place, but it is 120 miles away.
It is worth it though, it is a big Adventure park called Tierra Mitica. It has lots of rides,shows and other things. It is in a city called Benidorm.
The park's link is: http://www.terramiticapark.com/en/index....
I know it is further then you said, but i can't think of anything closer.
Enjoy your stay in valencia.
Cheers, Deanna

I answered this question the other day! Gave loads of places...obviously not good enough then!

Let me recommend you the albufera park, a wetland area close to the sea, and El Saler beaches and pine trees, all of it south of the city and 10 km of motorway away.

To the north and north west, 25Km from the city you'll find the Natural Park of the Sierra Calderona. A must see for its flora, fauna and natural spots.
