Hiking
One of the main attractions is the Castle of Biar, a majestic 12th-century fortress that stands prominently on a hill 700 metres above sea level. Declared a National Monument in 1931, the castle is a very good example of Muslim and Christian defensive architecture in Alicante. The interior vault, with its individual arches that converge in the centre, is still in its original state. From the castle's towers, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the old town and the surrounding mountains.
