Tough climb, but the reward of the views is a gift

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.

Natural passage between the Tagarina ravine and Benimantell. Currently widened: it is said that in its origins it was used by shepherds to count the heads of cattle due to the narrowness of the passage. The surroundings are impressive and the views on either side of the pass are spectacular.

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

Even after the repeated climb to Puerto de Tudons, you still have this great feeling of having reached your destination. Driven different routes, always an experience that stays in your memory for a long time. The effort is worth it and the departure is an event. Eddy Current.

Cool view of the Puigcampana. The descent is brilliant, fast, but the wide view to Finestrat is even better. 👍 The Puig Campana is a 1408 m high mountain in the province of Alicante, Spain. It belongs to the Cordillera Penibética mountain system. The mountain towers over the provincial capital Alicante. "Puig" is a name for mountain that is often used in eastern Spain, related to the southern French puy.
