Just use cd with no arguments supplied. From cd /?:

Type CD without parameters to display the current drive and directory.

And if you're trying to do more with the current directory as a value than simply printing it to console, use `%cd%` to access the environment variable. – kayleeFrye_onDeck Feb 04 '16 at 02:04
