One of my places in Cuenca

Molinos de Viento de Mota del Cuervo

Mota del Cuervo

Dr. Abdulmajeed Al-MudarraMy tip
“A wonderful place for a family picnic and sunset photos, with wide car parks. Combine it with Belmonte and El Toboso in one day.”

A row of white windmills on the edge of a hill nicknamed the “Balcony of La Mancha”, with a wide view over the plain. Less crowded than Consuegra, and one of the mills sometimes operates on Saturday mornings to show visitors how it used to grind.

What to see

The row of white windmills and the information centre · The working mill on Saturday mornings · The wide viewpoint over the La Mancha plain · The town of El Toboso (15 minutes) · Castillo de Belmonte (10 minutes)

Easy to reach, needs a car

1 hour 40 minutes from Madrid on the A-3/N-301. Flat paths over the hill; suitable for everyone.
