バレ・デ・アヨラの絶景の山頂・トップ6

Wow how beautiful! And the trip itself is what it's all about. What a beautiful rugged area.

Caroche or Caroig peak is a 1,126 meter mountain, located in Teresa de Cofrentes. It is located in the massif that receives the same name (Macizo del Caroig), located between the regions of "El valle de Ayora-Cofrentes" and the "Canal de Navarrès" and belonging to the municipality of "Teresa de Cofrentes", bordering the municipal area of Bicorp. It has a height of 1,126 meters above sea level. At its highest point there is a fire surveillance post, from which you can see a large part of the regions of Valencia, seeing the sea and the city of Cullera on the clearest days. On the slopes of this massif small streams grow such as “El Río Fraile” or the famous, among the locals of Teresa, “La Argongeña”. It is sometimes mispronounced "La Longeña". The entire geography is dotted with ravines, caves and very deep crevices, such as those found in the Las Quebradas area...

The Caroche peak is located 1125 meters above sea level. I invite you to stop along the way and contemplate the privileged views that you get from this point. Here you can find the forestry hut and some information panels about the surrounding mountains.

View from the hermitage of Montemayor

In this corner of the Ayora Valley there is a jewel that makes it very special. It is the dormant volcano of Agrás, whose spring waters are used in the Hervideros spa.

Montemayor is quite elevated and has a small hermitage called Santa Cruz. Along the route to the peak you can enjoy a wide variety of birds.

It is the highest point in the mountains from where you can even see the Cofrentes nuclear power plant. The highway connects Enguera and Ayora. At this point, you can enter the Sierra de Almansa through the track of the wind farm.

The history of the Cofrentes volcano (or Agrás volcano) goes back millions of years, as it is estimated that the last eruption took place between 1 and 2.6 million years ago. The fissuring of the Eurasian plate caused the belt of volcanoes in the Gulf of Valencia, of which Cofrentes, Picassent and Columbretes Islands stand out today.
