The Barranco del Cint, an impressive corner in the city of Alcoy, is part of the majestic Sierra de Mariola. It is located northwest of Alcoy and has a peculiar V shape at its entrance, which some believe gave it its name.

Hiking

This impressive ravine is located in the Sierra de Mariola, which culminates at an altitude of 1,390 meters at the top of Montcabrer. The gorge is surrounded by very high limestone walls that reach 200 meters. It is not surprising that climbing lovers come here in search of adrenaline and heart-stopping views.
