    Climbing to the top of the Peñón de Ifach is one of the most stunning hikes on the Costa Blanca. It's a somewhat difficult route, due to the steepness and rugged terrain. Once at the summit, however, the effort is worth it, as you'll enjoy spectacular views.

      A challenging climb, somewhat slippery in places, but well-marked with red markers along the trail. Some difficult sections are secured with chains and ropes. A flashlight or your cell phone camera is advisable when passing through a roughly 60-meter-long tunnel.

        It's worth climbing after 5:30/6 p.m., as the rock casts shadows the entire way up. It takes between 50 minutes and 1.5 hours, depending on photo breaks ;)
        I recommend taking the path to the photo spot at the end and then climbing to the summit.
        The view is already sensational, but even more incredible at sunset. You should start your descent promptly after sunset (around 8 p.m. in summer) to make it back down in time without a headlamp (it takes just under an hour).
