The 14-kilometre \u201eBarranc de l'Infern\u201c route is particularly suitable for adventurers in good physical condition, as the 6,800 steps through the rocky massif are quite demanding. The landscape rewards you with breathtaking gorges, old Moorish terraced fields and magnificent views.<br \/>One of the special features of this hike is the almost spiritual tranquillity that the valley exudes. Here, hikers can take a real break from everyday life and immerse themselves in the history of the region. The route leads past old farmsteads and abandoned villages that bear witness to times gone by. Especially in spring, when the almond blossom transforms the valley into a sea of white and pink flowers, the beauty of the Vall de Laguar is at its best.<br \/>Service tip: The starting point of the hike is the village of Fleix. There are free car parks there. Don't forget to bring enough water with you, as there are no refreshment stops along the way. Further information on the hiking route and maps can be found on the website of the municipality of Vall de Laguar.<br \/><strong>Vall de Laguar Town Hall - Carrer de Dalt, 1 - 03791 Vall de Laguar - +34 965 583 021<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lavalldelaguar.es\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.lavalldelaguar.es<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8d734af e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"8d734af\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-59b48e8 elementor-widget-divider--view-line_text elementor-widget-divider--element-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"59b48e8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider__text elementor-divider__element\">\n\t\t\t\t2\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-08eb151 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"08eb151\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Aiming high:\nThe ascent of Puig Campana<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-727f791 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"727f791\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Puig Campana, the second highest mountain on the Costa Blanca, is a magnet for hiking enthusiasts not only because of its characteristic silhouette, but also because of its challenging ascents. The hike over the \u201eVertical Kilometre\u201c is particularly demanding. The steep route leads in serpentines almost directly to the summit and requires fitness and surefootedness. Once at the top, a magnificent panoramic view opens up over the entire Marina Baixa region, the Mediterranean and the surrounding valleys. On clear days, the view extends as far as the island of Ibiza. This hike is not for the faint-hearted, as stony paths and scree fields await you along the way. But for experienced hikers, the ascent is a real reward.<br \/>Service tip: The starting point of the hike is at the car park on the hiking trail. Be sure to wear sturdy hiking boots and take plenty of water with you! Depending on the route, the descent can be via the south side of the mountain, which is slightly less steep.<br \/><strong>Finestrat Tourist Office - Pla\u00e7a de l'Ajuntament, 1 - 03509 Finestrat - +34 966 806 053<\/strong><br \/>www.finestrat.org<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6e399cf e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6e399cf\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ac62d54 elementor-widget-divider--view-line_text elementor-widget-divider--element-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"ac62d54\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider__text elementor-divider__element\">\n\t\t\t\t3\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bdd94d8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"bdd94d8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Family hiking\nin the Serra Gelada Nature Park<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f8cf6fd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f8cf6fd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The Serra Gelada Nature Park is a perfect option for hikers who want to take it a little easier.

The route leads past fragrant pine forests, along the coast and up onto the cliffs, from where there are spectacular views of the deep blue Mediterranean. Along the way, there are always small bays and viewpoints that invite you to take a break. The hike to the \u201eTorre de les Caletes\u201c, an old watchtower, is particularly exciting for children. The route is also pleasant to walk in winter, as the temperatures are milder than inland.<br \/>Service tip: The starting point is in Albir, where there are numerous car parks.

The hiking trail starts at La Fossa beach in Calpe and leads along the coast through narrow paths and sandy coves.<br \/>A highlight of the hike is a visit to the old Roman fish salt ponds \u201eBa\u00f1os de la Reina\u201c and the remains of historic watchtowers, which are a reminder of the region's eventful history. The trail ends in the small harbour town of Moraira, where a stop at one of the local restaurants is the perfect way to finish.<br \/>Service tip: The hike takes about 4 hours. It requires sturdy shoes and sure-footedness, as some sections can be rocky and slippery.

There are always opportunities to stop off at small bodegas and sample the local wines.<br \/>The hike is particularly attractive in autumn, when the grape harvest is in full swing and the fields glow in warm colours.
