Sevilla to Madrid Map

Plan your trip from Sevilla to Madrid using the high-speed rail corridor. The line departs from Santa Justa and typically stops at Cordoba, Puertollano, and Ciudad Real before reaching Madrid Atocha. This route traverses the Sierra Morena mountains and the vast plains of the Meseta. By choosing this transport, you travel across the heart of Spain through diverse geographical regions. This map represents the primary link between Andalusia and the capital city.

Rail vs Bus vs Plane

Rail travel on the AVE provides direct city-center connections, avoiding the long security lines of airports and the 6-hour duration of road travel. While flights exist, the transfer time to Sevilla and Madrid airports often makes the total trip longer than the train. Buses are more affordable but significantly slower. The high-speed rail remains the most effective balance of price and speed for this corridor.
