village with a beautiful old centre, recommended for cycling or walking through.

Polop Castle, perched atop a hill overlooking the old town of Polop de la Marina (Alicante), is a fortress of Muslim origin with over 800 years of history. Although now in ruins, it remains a site of significant heritage and cultural value. Islamic Origins: Built in the early 12th century by the Muslims of the Emirate of Denia, it served a defensive and strategic purpose over the Marina Baixa region. Decline: Its abandonment began in the 18th century. Some of its materials were reused to build the chapel and cemetery that now occupy the site.

Great climb and the second one is even better.

Altea is a charming coastal town on the Costa Blanca and is one of the most beautiful towns in the region. Known for its whitewashed houses, narrow streets, and the characteristic blue-domed church of Nuestra Señora del Consuelo, the town enchants with its Mediterranean flair and magnificent views of the sea.

After a ride, you can relax on the beach promenade or in the old harbor, where numerous restaurants serve fresh fish and regional specialties. Thanks to the mild climate, Altea is a perfect destination for cyclists and connoisseurs alike all year round.

El Castell de Guadalest is a charming town in the province of Alicante, located in a mountainous area of the Marina Baixa region.

Tough but with magnificent views. Relatively quiet road.

Tucked away in the mountains between Tàrbena and Castell de Castells, the Puerto de Sa Creueta offers two distinct climbing experiences — and both are worth riding. From Tàrbena, the climb is friendly and scenic. You’ll face about 4 km of steady climbing at around 5%, followed by a rolling 3.5 km section with gentle ups and downs. Just before the top, a short final ramp kicks up sharply to around 12%, but overall this side is rhythmical and not too demanding. The road is wide, smooth and virtually traffic-free, ideal for a relaxed climb. Approaching via the Castell de Castells side, from Tollos or from Benigembla and the Vall de Pop, is a whole different story. After a relatively calm start, the climb hits hard with a 2 km stretch averaging around 10% — sustained, steep, and guaranteed to get your legs burning. This side is definitely more challenging, and a great test for climbers. No matter which direction you choose, you’ll be rewarded with expansive views over the valley near Tàrbena, the rugged peaks of the Marina mountains, and — on a clear day — even the Mediterranean Sea and the skyline of Altea shimmering in the distance. Puerto de Sa Creueta is a hidden gem: peaceful, beautiful and tougher than it looks, especially if you come at it from the inland side. Combine it with Coll de Rates for an unforgettable day in the heart of the Costa Blanca.
