Image of Albalate de las Nogueras, not of the place itself.

Albalate de las Nogueras, in the Alcarria Conquense (Cuenca), sits at 855 metres of altitude atop a hill, at the foot of a sierra, between the Albalate and Trabaque rivers; the latter carves a gorge that surrounds the hamlet in a semicircle before continuing its course eastward. The municipal area alternates rocky and scrubland areas with vegas and plains of varied vegetation, among which leafy walnut trees stand out, along with small market gardens irrigated by the rivers' waters. Small game hunting of partridges, hares and rabbits is scarce due to the lack of scrubland.
