베니레드라‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 산길

🚴‍♂️ A short but powerful pass, with views to swoon over. Highly recommended is this section between Simat and Barx, a classic in the area that has everything we're looking for in a great getaway: history, slopes, nature, and picture-postcard panoramas. ⁣ The route starts off with a bang, next to the majestic monastery of Santa Maria de la Valldigna, and begins to gain altitude with a series of hairpin bends that get you started. As you climb, you leave the valley behind and the Vall de la Valldigna appears in all its splendor: Simat, Benifairó, Tavernes, and the monastery... a view worth every pedal stroke! Before reaching Barx, there is a detour to the left towards "Les Foies," a hamlet of Simat. Upon reaching Font del Cirer, you can stop for a drink or sit down and take some photos of the valley. Further along, following the road, comes one of the most challenging sections: a slope reaching up to 14% that tests your legs just before reaching the summit of the hamlet of Les Foies. But don't worry: the effort is rewarded. The final stretch through white pines to Font Nova is a delight. Here, you have a perfect recreational area to stop, catch your breath, and recharge your batteries amidst the shade and nature, or simply enjoy the silence after your effort.

Puerto de la Drova, or Collado del Mollons, is a climb in the Costa del Azahar region. It has a length of 9.8 kilometers and a climb of 359 vertical meters with a slope of 3.7% on average, which implies a difficulty level of 201. The top of the climb is located at 382 meters above sea level. At the top, you can access the Parpalló Borrell Environmental Interpretation Center, a space to disseminate and help interpret the environmental aspects of the area where it is located.

This port is one of the classics of the area. It can be done uphill from Gandia, so the journey is 10km that starts with a very gentle slope and gets steeper at the end with the true port (3.5km). Going downhill, you have to be careful because high speeds are achieved thanks to the good asphalt and the layout of the curves. And I say that you need to be careful not only for physical integrity, but also because the civil guard charges cyclists with excessive speed.

Mythical ascent for the people of Gandia

Silence smells and colors throughout the tour.

Take it easy on the ascent in this section, and be careful on the descent, there are very tight curves.
