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. A visit to the old town, which rises on a hill and is characterized by small boutiques, galleries, and cozy cafés, is particularly worthwhile. Altea offers ideal conditions for cyclists: the coastal roads and surrounding hills are perfect for bike tours, with both flat stretches along the sea and challenging climbs into the hinterland possible. 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.

If there’s one climb that defines cycling on the Costa Blanca, it’s Coll de Rates. Starting from the village of Parcent, this legendary ascent has become a must-ride for cyclists from around the world — from weekend warriors to Tour de France champions. The climb is just under 7 km long, with an average gradient of around 5%, making it both accessible and rhythmical. The road surface is excellent, the curves are elegant, and the views just keep getting better as you rise above the valley. This is no secret among the pros. Riders from Jumbo-Visma, INEOS, UAE Team Emirates and others regularly use Coll de Rates for winter training. Tadej Pogačar currently holds the Strava KOM, which says a lot about the kind of names that have tested themselves here. On clear days, the view from the top is simply breathtaking — stretching all the way across the coastline, and if you’re lucky, even Ibiza shimmers faintly on the horizon. There’s a café at the summit (seasonal), and the descent toward Tarbena or Castell de Castells is just as rewarding. With its mix of scenery, steady gradients and cycling history, Coll de Rates is one of the most climbed — and most loved — ascents in the world. If you ride only one climb in the region, make it this one.
