A good rule that is generally followed. Motorists must maintain a minimum distance of 1.5 meters when overtaking cyclists. Violations of this rule are considered a traffic violation and are usually punished with a fine of around €200. Higher penalties can be imposed if cyclists are endangered. When overtaking groups of three or more cyclists, the group must be overtaken as a unit, without passing between individual riders, to ensure the safety of all cyclists.

The Church of Santa Anna de Sella was built in several phases on the remains of the old mosque. In 1574, Patriarch Ribera separated the church and placed it under the protection of Santa Anna of Relleu. The current building dates from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, after the expulsion of the Moors. The bell tower was added in 1925, while the doors were donated in 1885 by Joan Thouus, the daughter of the Cacique of La Marina. To the left is the abbey house, which was first mentioned in 1574. Inside, destroyed during the Civil War, is the image of the divine Aurora, the patron saint of Sella.

Most drivers maintain the specified distance 👍

Sella is a picturesque mountain village nestled in the southern Sierra de Aitana. It is distinguished by its impressive mountain scenery and is a popular destination for cyclists. The surrounding area is particularly appealing, with its striking limestone formations of the Aitana Mountains, as is the popular Ruta del Agua, a scenic route for hikers and cyclists. The village itself retains its authentic Spanish atmosphere with traditional bars, shops, and bakeries, and offers numerous opportunities to experience the region's nature and culture. Furthermore, the Festa Major in October reflects Sella's vibrant cultural life.

The Embalse del Amadorio between Villajoyosa and Orcheta is an attractive destination for cyclists, just four kilometers as the crow flies from the Mediterranean Sea. Spectacular views of the clear, turquoise water shimmer in the sunlight, while the surrounding mountains are picturesquely reflected in it, open up again and again around the reservoir. The paths are well-maintained, partly paved bike paths, partly quiet back roads, and invite you to take a relaxing ride. Numerous rest stops along the way offer opportunities to enjoy the tranquil atmosphere, the vibrant colors of the water, and the impressive mountain backdrop – a perfect stretch for cyclists who want to combine landscape, nature, and proximity to the Mediterranean.

Nice viewpoint over Busot and surroundings. The castle is not much but it is very accessible and free so it is worth walking up.

The color of the water is extraordinary, it is worth a visit.
