Desert de les Palmes Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Port recognized by everyone in the province of Castellón for its challenging climb and impressive views! It is listed as a 3rd category port, about 4 km long with an average slope of 7%. Depending on where you climb from, it will be more or less demanding but still entertaining.

Interesting viewpoint of the Desert of Las Palmas, where you can see beautiful views of the coast and the old Carmelite monastery, semi-ruined, they say, by an earth movement.

A magnificent Natural Park a few kilometers from Benicàssim. You can take a tour in the modality you like, a Park that offers gravel tracks, asphalt roads and secondary roads so you can go through it to your liking. Either way you visit it you will have incredible panoramic views.
