アルギミアデアルモナシッドの峠・トップ5

It's a tough climb once you've been on the bike for a couple of hours. Especially going down, having lunch and going back up to get home. Very cool and quiet, no cars.

A very beautiful and easy to drive pass road.

The Coll de Barres is a hill with beautiful views in the Sierra de Espadá. The climb is demanding both from Eslida and from Ain.

Crossroads of paths and roads. The GR36 trail crosses the entire Sierra de Espadán Natural Park, from Vilavella to Montanejos (or vice versa), in a total route of more than 65 kilometers that passes through the towns of Eslida, Aín, Veo, Alcudia de Veo and Torralba del Pinar. In Montanejos, it also connects with the GR 7 that runs along the eastern Spanish peninsula.

Limit of the municipalities of Eslida and Aín at 754m. of altitude

It was an amazing experience in the mercury mines! These areas are little known and very easy to explore. However, it is important to be careful, since there are ventilation chimneys that represent a danger. I would recommend starting with the lower chimneys, specifically the ones on the left, and taking your time as you walk. Unfortunately, I couldn't go downstairs because I was alone, but I promise to come back with someone so I can do it. It was an awesome experience and for now the chimneys are not closed yet, but they probably will be soon. It is essential to carry a headlamp, a flashlight and a tracking device to guarantee our safety. Let's not expose ourselves to unnecessary risks.

The drive is a beautiful mountain road the entire distance between Alcidia de Veo and at least Vall de Almonacid, which is very worthwhile in both directions. On the Alcidia side it is mostly shady further up, certainly enjoyable in summer, cold in winter even in sunny weather! The whole Serra Espada seems to me to be a road bike paradise inside, really spectacular landscape! Everything that is marked in yellow by Komoot here are roads of the finest racing bike quality, on which you can really let it rip. But the landscape is actually too beautiful for that!

The entire "Carretera de Chóvar-Eslida" is a beautiful mountain road that is very worthwhile in both directions. On the Eslida side it is mostly shady, certainly enjoyable in summer, cold in winter even in sunny weather! From or to Eslida you can go towards the sea or further into the Serra Espada, which is really spectacular there at Ain! Everything that is marked in yellow by Komoot here are roads of the finest racing bike quality, on which you can really let it rip. But the landscape is actually too beautiful for that!
