ベニドレイグのおすすめライド

素晴らしい景色は登る価値があります

Benigembla International Mosta d’Art Urbà、略してBIMAUは、アリカンテ県のラ・マリーナ・アルタ郡にあるベニヘンブラの街に色彩と創造性をもたらすアーバンアートのイベントです。イベント期間中、この小さな町では様々なイベントが開催され、ファサードが壁画に変わり、村は野外美術館へと変貌します。 これは、空間と人々を結びつける文化プロジェクトです。選ばれた壁は、BIMAUの壁画のためにファサードを提供する住民のものであり、村の本質を反映した風景やシーンで飾られます。 このように、最も典型的な通りには、様々なスタイルの現代美術作品が展示され、興味深いコントラストを生み出しています。

Beautiful route paved paths

Nice descent, not too steep

Watering hole when open

Very cool little cycle cafe! Coffee and cakes only, no main meals, but still worth a stop as what they do have is excellent! But you aren't far from Velosol in the next town, which does main meals.

The Puerto de Sorell is a quiet and under-the-radar ridge climb in the northern Costa Blanca, linking Pego and Ràfol d’Almúnia via the CV‑728. It’s not long, not high — but it’s a perfect connector on a peaceful inland loop. From Ràfol d’Almúnia, the climb is 2.7 km long at an average gradient of 3.1%. It’s a smooth, steady ascent through olive groves and farmland, ideal for keeping a light rhythm and soaking up the rural scenery. The road surface is good and traffic is almost nonexistent. From the Pego side, the climb is roughly the same length but considerably steeper, with sections reaching 6 to 8%. It’s a short but honest effort, and a nice little test when coming up from the coastal plain. The views are wide and open — toward the Segària range, the valley below, and even the sea in the distance. At the summit, you'll spot the blue "Puerto de Sorell – 170 m" sign, a modest but official col marker that makes the climb feel just a bit more special. From here, you can descend either way or continue inland toward Vall de Gallinera, Vall d’Ebo, or Coll de Rates. Puerto de Sorell is a local favourite: short, scenic, quiet — and perfect for linking bigger climbs on a longer ride.

If you’re looking for a peaceful and scenic day out in nature, Marjal de Pego-Oliva Natural Park is a hidden gem worth exploring. It’s a beautiful wetland area located between the towns of Pego and Oliva on the Costa Blanca, full of wildlife, rice fields, and freshwater springs. 🚶‍♂️ What to Do There • Walk or cycle the trails: There are several easy routes, including wooden boardwalks over the marsh, great for families or casual walkers. One of the most popular paths is the Ruta del Bullent, a circular walk that brings you close to rivers, rice fields, and the famous natural spring. • Swim in the Font Salada: This is a warm natural spring (about 21–24°C all year) where you can take a dip. The water is known for its skin-healing properties. • Birdwatching: The area is rich in biodiversity, with herons, ducks, and even rare fish and turtles. Bring binoculars if you can. • Enjoy the peaceful views: There are viewing platforms offering panoramic vistas of the marshes and surrounding mountains. 🧭 Tips for Your Visit • Follow the marked trails to protect the environment and avoid getting lost. • Bring water and sun protection, especially in summer. • Respect nature: take your trash with you, keep noise down, and don’t disturb animals or plants. • Avoid weekends in high season if you prefer quiet – it can get busy, especially at the spring. 🚗 Getting There & Parking Access is easy from the N-332 or the CV-700. If you’re visiting Font Salada, note that parking has recently been restricted. There’s a new small car park nearby (Racó del Fuster), and the spring is a short walk from there. It’s a perfect half-day trip, especially if you’re staying near Denia, Oliva, Jávea or inland in places like Pego or Alcalalí. Ideal for nature lovers, photographers, families, or anyone needing a peaceful break in nature.
