Ronda to Antequera Route Overview

The route leaves Ronda on the mountain railway that links the Serrania de Ronda with the Bobadilla rail junction, one of Andalusia's key inland transfer points. This is not a high-speed service, but it is useful for reaching Antequera-Santa Ana, where passengers can connect with AVE and Avant trains toward Malaga, Cordoba, Madrid, Granada, and Seville. A distinctive part of the trip is the rural stretch through limestone hills, olive groves, and small white villages before the line opens out toward the Antequera basin. Tickets are generally issued with a specific train, and passengers should use the booked departure rather than treating the ticket as an open regional fare.

Rating

The train links Ronda station with Antequera-Santa Ana in about 1 hour 9 minutes on the fastest services, avoiding road transfers through the mountain roads between the Serrania and inland Malaga province. Buses between the two towns are less frequent and often take longer because services may route through intermediate towns. Flying is not practical for this short inland route, as there is no direct air service and airport transfers via Malaga would take far longer than the train. Rail also produces lower emissions than using a private car or an air routing through Malaga.

Plus, it’s a greener choice, reducing your carbon footprint
