Between the Alicante towns of Altea and Calpe, the N-332 road crosses a rugged and rugged landscape, as spectacular as few. The great natural barrier of the Serra de Bèrnia, which sinks its roots into the sea in the Morro de Toix, is broken by the Barranc Salat, which brings together the waters collected by the Bèrnia itself and the Sierra de Oltà, flowing into the sea in the nearby Playa del Mascarat (being the origin of it).

Hiking

Entering the canyon is quite an adventure and if you add to that the views of the imposing road and railway bridges, they make an unparalleled combo.
The site is not only popular with hikers, but it is also a popular place to practice climbing due to the great height of its challenging rock walls.
