Estación Madrid-Chamartín, seen from Guadalajara
Guadalajara has two stations that should not be confused: the city station, with commuter and regional trains, and the high-speed station at Yebes, outside the town. When booking, say which one you need.
On arrival: Madrid capital
The capital holds the stations, hospitals, trade fairs and most of the region's hotels. The pre-booked trips requested from here are those that leave the municipality: day trips, business transfers to neighbouring provinces and leisure in the southern metro area.
Tip: If you are catching the AVE, say it is Guadalajara-Yebes station and not the city's commuter station: they are in different places and mixing them up can cost you the train.

Before you book, this may help
- Guadalajara city and Alcalá de Henares in a day from Madrid without a car: the Infantado palace, the Pantheon, the university town and how to link them
You get there by Cercanías: line C-2 links Atocha and Chamartín with Alcalá de Henares and Guadalajara, so the logical plan is to get off in one city in the morning and the other in the afternoon.
- Guadalajara's festivals: the September fair, the Tenorio Mendocino, Holy Week in Sigüenza and the Ducal Festival of Pastrana, and how to get around on those days
Guadalajara's fair and festival are in September and fill the old town and the fairground for over a week; the Tenorio Mendocino is performed at the end of October through the old-town streets and palaces, with the centre closed; Holy Week in Sigüenza fills a small city with few trains; and the Ducal Festival of Pastrana, in July, turns a village with no public transport into a Renaissance market.
- Azuqueca, Alovera and the Henares corridor to Madrid without a car: what the Cercanías does well, what it does not reach (Barajas, the nights) and what a car with a driver costs
For commuting to Alcalá or Madrid, the C-2 Cercanías from Azuqueca or Guadalajara is hard to beat: it stops at Alcalá, Torrejón, Chamartín and Atocha and runs every few minutes at peak times.
