レリューの峠・トップ17

A beautiful, long, not-too-steep climb. Nevertheless, you gain over 800 meters in elevation. Quiet roads, hardly any traffic. Very beautiful scenery.

The Puerto de Confrides is the longest—and one of the highest—climbs in the area, stretching nearly 25 km from base to summit. It's not overly steep, with a moderate average gradient that keeps it rider-friendly, but the real challenge comes from its length. Expect a sustained ascent through pine forests, olive groves, and sweeping valley views. Pace yourself early, stay hydrated, and enjoy the gradual rhythm—this is a true endurance climb that rewards consistent effort rather than explosive power.

コンフリデス峠は、コスタ・ブランカでサイクリストに人気のルートで、素晴らしい景色と挑戦的な坂道で知られています。 この登りはカテゴリー2で、距離は9キロメートル、平均勾配は5％です。開始標高は550メートル、終了標高は960メートルで、総高低差は410メートルです。最後の1.5キロメートルが最も挑戦的で、平均勾配は7％を超えます。

The route runs either from Benilloba or from the valley of the Riu Guadalest. If you start on the coast, you can drive up to almost 1000 meters. On some maps, its name also reads "Port d'Ares". But the sign clearly says "Port de Confrides".

a short passage that requires a little skill clambering over rocks. The start is a narrow passage where some people might need to take off their rucksack.

This is a passage with two very short chain-insured sections. One route leads between a crevice in the rock. The chain can be helpful when climbing to pull yourself up. On the other route, a narrow path leads over coarser scree, so you don't really need the chain. Viewed from above, it looks worse than it is.

Impressive climb to the Tudons port, impressive views, and on the way down good places to stop for a drink, without rushing
