It is a beautiful and entertaining port, without major complications and with magnificent views. In the first part, we start with gentle slopes, which will be very good for us to "warm up" our legs, since after km. 4 things get a little more serious. The slope will begin to increase, with some loose ramps around 10%, and horseshoes will appear, until we reach the first hill at km. 12. Afterwards, we will have a short break including a short descent to the town of Serratella, and we will only have the final stretch, quite gentle, until we reach the top at 844 m. of altitude. At that point, we can decide whether to go down towards Albocàsser, or have a little "warm up" going up to the hermitage of S. Juan Nepomuceno along a concrete track that goes out to our left for about 500 m. and with 20% ramps, until reaching 920 m. of altitude.

It is a short but very hard ascent, which will probably surprise us with its hardness. We will begin the climb with an initial section until the intersection of the CV-15 with some hard ramps, we cross the town of Rosildos, surrounding the church to look for the street that takes us to Mas de Cervera, where we will join the “main” road. towards Serra Engarcerán. When we reach a somewhat more wooded area we will find a small break, but let's not trust ourselves, because when we take a curve to the left and the trees disappear, we will find ourselves with the hardest section of the ascent, where the slope reaches 16%. maximum in a section of 500 m. that does not go below 10%. We will finish a little easier, but without a doubt this climb will have pleasantly surprised us.

The Via Augusta crosses the provinces of Tarragona and Castelló while crossing the river Sénia. This acted as the backbone of our regions and as a gathering place for the population due to its function for the transport of goods and people. This section is a good example since very close to the road we have evidence of a large number of settlements. Very close to Benlloc on the edge of the road is the Roman Arch of Cabanes. In the section that passes through Pla de l'Arc, a large number of millstones have been found, clear evidence of the passage of the Via Augusta through the area.
