IFIC is located at the Campus of Paterna, north-west of the city of Valencia at about 5 km from the centre. It can easily be reached by public transportation. Through the main entrace you will find us at the ground flour and first flour on your left.

Transportation

  • Metro

    From the north of centre of the city (e.g. Pont de Fusta) take Tram 4 (Blue Line) to TVV station. Some of the trains might end one stop before at V.Andrés Estellés, then you can either wait for the next tram or walk (around 10 minutes). From the main train station "Estación del Norte" take Line 3 (Red) to Ángel Guimerá (one stop only), then change to Line 1 (Yellow) and at Empalme station to Tram 4. The metro Line 3 has been recently extended connecting the airport to the city centre.

  • Bus

    The Bus Line 63 connects the Campus to the city centre, from Bailén (left side of the main train station) to V.Andrés Estellés along Gran Via Ramón y Cajal, Gran Via Fernando el Católico and Pista de Ademuz. Operates only during lecturing days!

  • Aero-bus

    The Aero-Bus route operates between the airport and the centre of Valencia between 6.00am until 22.00pm. The bus leaves from the departures terminal every twenty minutes and stops at Avda. del Cid, Bailén and Ángel Guimerá. The journey takes 20 minutes and costs 2.5 Eur. There is another bus which takes a different route terminating instead at the central bus station on Avenida Menéndez Pidal. The journey takes approximately 45 minutes and costs 1.05 Eur.

  • Taxi

    You'll find a taxi rank located directly outside the airport terminal building. The journey into the centre of the twon takes around 15 minutes and costs approximately 14 Eur. It is also quite convenient to come to IFIC directly from the airport. You might indicate to the taxi driver: "Campus de Paterna, detrás de la Televisión Valenciana"

  • By car

    If you are coming from Madrid take direction Barcelona at the crossing of the A3 (E901) with the A7 (E15). If you are already at the A7 motorway get out at Valencia-Ademuz CV-35 direction Valencia-Fira de Mostres, then take the second way out to La Coma, cross over the CV-35 and at the second roundabout turn right. You will find the IFIC after 1 km around at your right. From the city centre take Pista de Ademuz and get out at TVV.
