Top 9 Caves 카스텔 드 카스텔 주변

Great little hidden ascent which feels like it it inside the cliff face. Annoyingly difficult approach path but once you get to the ascent proper the magic begins. NOTE - this is a SAC T4 section of path - nothing technical but still a challenge. I suggest you may like to take gloves for the chains and staples. Gloves are also useful in the tight area where you have to partially crawl through a semi cave. I had a head torch but it was not really necessary. Sticks were a pain and might be best stowed at the start of the ascent. An disposable overbag (I always use a heavy duty dustbin liner) for your rucksack where it is best dragged behind you might also be useful but not 100% necessary. There is one particularly narrow place "a fatmans squeeze" that might give you trouble if your a big person,

About halfway up the narrow road toward Petracos, there's a path leading to one of the Costa Blanca’s hidden gems: the prehistoric rock paintings of Les Coves de Pintures Rupestres de la Sarga de Petracos. These sacred cave sites are over 6,000 years old and are recognised as UNESCO World Heritage. The paintings are protected behind fences but still visible — abstract symbols, anthropomorphic figures, and mysterious shapes left by early Iberian cultures. It’s absolutely worth a stop for a moment of silence and awe — but be warned: the trail isn’t cycling-shoe friendly. You’ll either need cleat covers or the willingness to carry your bike over rocky steps for a short hike. 😅 A unique mix of nature, history, and quiet that most riders simply roll past.

The tour is great. The way to the cova (cave) spectacular. As was the path down. When it rains heavily, a waterfall shoots down the side of the hole in the rock.

The Höhenweg is a must. Good view of the Vall de Gallinera. Best for cherry blossoms.

Baix Refrigerator Old artificial refrigerator in the term of Alcalá de la Jovada, in the region of Marina Alta.

An old Moorish cave that is believed to have been used both as a refuge and as a defense against the withdrawal of the Moors from the area. Today you can visit and enter it with due caution.

A few meters before the Font Grossa there is a detour towards the bowels of the ravine. The fountain has a traditional sink and usually always has water. The path begins a series of hairpin hairpins and quickly loses height, it's like going down an escalator. The entrance into the environmental space of the Girona River is spectacular through the Forat de la Juvea, a natural hole conditioned to sneak the path through the mountain and access the interior of the valley. In the ravine on the right, a thirty-meter waterfall forms during the rainy season, it is one of the sports descents of ravines in the area.

Some history lesson in a cool place 😉
