Madrid to Figueres Route Overview

The arrival station is Figueres Vilafant, west of town, rather than the conventional-line Figueres station nearer the centre. This distinction matters for visiting the Dali Theatre-Museum: plan a local bus or taxi transfer rather than expecting to arrive beside it. AVE tickets include a reservation for a specific train; there are no non-reserved cars. At Madrid Atocha, allow time for luggage screening before access to the departure area.

Madrid to Figueres Map

The high-speed corridor runs northeast from Madrid through the Zaragoza and Lleida areas to Camp de Tarragona and Barcelona Sants, then continues inland through Girona to Figueres Vilafant. Not every train calls at every station. The route crosses the dry landscapes of Aragon before reaching Catalan farmland; Barcelona is traversed largely by tunnel. Figueres Vilafant is the last Spanish high-speed station before the line continues towards France.

Madrid to Figueres Bullet Train

AVE is the direct high-speed service between Madrid and Figueres Vilafant, with journeys generally around four hours. Trains can reach 300 km/h (186 mph) on suitable sections, not throughout the entire journey.
