I took the train from Valencia to Granada many years ago. It took around 12 hours. I doubt the journey time would be much quicker now, as they've not put down a new high speed line along that route. In fact I'm fairly sure the train took the route back towards Madrid (maybe Alcazar de San Juan) before coming out again.

I have looked into altari rail service they go at 126mph and the AVE train service go at 186mph, providing I can use these services then I could get to these resorts so fast. Trains from Calpe, Altea, Benidorm...

Or I can travel from Calpe in the other direction South West for 279 miles and get to the Sierra Nevada which is a lot smaller ski resort. I have looked into public transport but don't know where to begin. I know that a 1.4 liter car would cost me about £95...

Teruel is much closer to you!
