Travel from Col. de Santa Ana city center to train station Antequera Santa Ana

Located in Andalucia, around 60 miles (90 kilometers) north of Malaga, Col. de Santa Ana is a tiny village with a difference: it hosts the train station Antequera Santa Ana, which is on the mainline between Malaga and Madrid. Because of this, it's an important transit point for those coming from the Andalucian interior, as well as the nearby city of Antequera (which gives the station its name). Antequera is an attractive city, which mixes Moorish, prehistoric, and modern attractions. Known as the "Crossroads of Andalucia", it attracts a stream of visitors, many of which need to know the best route to Antequera Santa Ana station.

What is the best way to the train station Antequera Santa Ana from Col. de Santa Ana city center?

If travelers need to make the journey from the center of Col. de Santa Ana itself to the train station Antequera Santa Ana, public transport won't be an option. Instead, travelers are best advised to arrange taxis directly to the station, although walking isn't out of the question. From Antequera, travelers have a choice of trains, buses, or taxis, and journey times won't be all that long. The station also enjoys direct connections from Ronda and Malaga, making it a very useful transfer point for explorations of Andalucia.  And it is also well-situated for those who have been staying in the Cordilleras Beticas mountains - a popular spot with hikers and campers alike. Finally, taxis are the best way to reach Antequera Santa Ana Station from nearby attractions like Bobastro's ruined castle and the Lagunas del Campillo.

How far is it to the train station Antequera Santa Ana from Col. Santa Ana city center?

Antequera Santa Ana station is only a few hundred meters north of the center of the village of Col. Santa Ana. Taxis will take 5 minutes at most, while those on foot can reach the station in 20 minutes. However, most visitors to the station will be coming from further afield. Most importantly, Antequera is 14 miles (20 kilometers) to the east. Trains from there will take 30 minutes, buses take 55 minutes, while taxis can be expected to reach Antequera Santa Ana in 20-25 minutes. Ronda is 40 miles (70 kilometers) to the south-west, and trains from there will take 1 hour 10 minutes. Malaga is 50 miles (80 kilometers) to the south, and trains reach Antequera Santa Ana in approximately 25 minutes (as they use the high-speed line). Taxi journey times will vary from campsites or retreats in the mountains. However, expect 45 minute journey times from Bobastro and the nearby lakes, and journeys of 40 minutes or more from locations in the Cordilleras Beticas.

How accessible is the train station Antequera Santa Ana for those with limited mobility?

In general, wheelchair users or those with other mobility issues will be able to use the train station Antequera Santa Ana without any major problems. Getting there may be more problematic, because there are no buses from nearby Col. Santa Ana. This means that it's advisable to book taxis in advance, and to choose providers with the ability to cater for wheelchair users. Otherwise, intercity train connections are well-suited to disabled travelers, so those coming from Antequera, Ronda, or Malaga will have no worries. The recently constructed station at Antequera Santa Ana is surprisingly large given the absence of urban areas nearby. As with all RENFE facilities, it has been adapted with accessibility in mind. Ramps are available to access platforms, and staff should be on hand to assist with luggage or boarding. However, it may be a good idea to check that the station is fully staffed when trains leave, as this may not always be the case.

Local tips: the train station Antequera Santa Ana points of interest

Whether the trains are delayed, or travelers have made a mistake in their timing, it's all-too-easy to leave yourself with a few hours to spare before services leave. Unfortunately, if travelers are wondering what to do near the station at Antequera Santa Ana, there aren't many options to fill the time. There are a few cafes and restaurants in the village of Col. Santa Ana, as well as a gas station - which sells various snacks. The ruined Roman and Moorish castle at Bobastro is also less than 45 minutes away by taxi, and will be really enjoyable for history fans. However, there isn't much to see or do closer to the station, so packing a good book, firing up laptops, or grabbing a bite to eat from the station cafe is probably the way to go.
