Beautiful view of the Amadorio reservoir

A lovely walk on quiet, well-maintained paths and roads. The only drawback is the section along the sewage treatment plant where it can get quite smelly.

Wear a windbreaker in September-October

A beautiful, long, not-too-steep climb. Nevertheless, you gain over 800 meters in elevation. Quiet roads, hardly any traffic. Very beautiful scenery.

The Puerto de Confrides is the longest—and one of the highest—climbs in the area, stretching nearly 25 km from base to summit. It's not overly steep, with a moderate average gradient that keeps it rider-friendly, but the real challenge comes from its length. Expect a sustained ascent through pine forests, olive groves, and sweeping valley views. Pace yourself early, stay hydrated, and enjoy the gradual rhythm—this is a true endurance climb that rewards consistent effort rather than explosive power.

Beautiful views on a large part of the walk. It is fairly easy, except for the first few kilometers, which are so steep that you need good walking sticks when descending, because of the loose rocks.

Puerto de Confrides is a very popular route among cyclists on the Costa Blanca, known for its stunning scenery and challenging slopes. This climb is a category 2 climb, with a length of 9 km and an average gradient of 5%. The initial altitude is 550 m and the final 960 m, with a total gradient of 410 m. The last 1.5 km are the most challenging, with an average gradient of over 7%.

The route runs either from Benilloba or from the valley of the Riu Guadalest. If you start on the coast, you can drive up to almost 1000 meters. On some maps, its name also reads "Port d'Ares". But the sign clearly says "Port de Confrides".
