In our sporty look at the Costa Blanca, hiking is a must. No other activity makes it so clear how closely the coast and hinterland are connected here: the view of the sea, the steep mountains behind you - and trails for every level in between. While professional cyclists roll through the region and padel courts are full of players, locals, residents and guests are drawn to the great outdoors. Some seek a leisurely stroll, others a sporting challenge.<\/p>

The classic: Barranc de l'Infern<\/strong>
The \u201eGorge of Hell\u201c in the Vall de Laguar is a household name for anyone who enjoys a challenging hike. The complete circuit with around 6,500 steps and almost 15 kilometres requires a good level of fitness. If you don't want to go that far, you can choose individual sections and still experience the spectacular gorge landscape. This makes the Barranc both a challenge for experienced hikers and an exciting destination for those who prefer shorter routes.<\/p>

The coastal path: Serra Gelada<\/strong>
Between Benidorm, Albir and Altea, the Serra Gelada stretches along the sea with its rugged cliffs. If you want to take it easy, walk along wide paths to the Albir lighthouse.<\/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

For more athletic hikers, a ridge path leads over the ridge - much steeper, but with sweeping views over the Mediterranean and the coastal towns. Both variants show how rich in contrast a hike can be in a small space.<\/p>

The striking rock: Pe\u00f1\u00f3n de Ifach<\/strong>
In Calpe, the 332 metre high rock rises out of the sea, visible from afar. The path to the tunnel is doable for everyone, from there the ascent becomes more challenging.
Narrow paths, rocky passages and steep sections require surefootedness - but the view from the summit, which extends far inland, makes up for this. A short, intensive ascent that is perfect for beginners and advanced hikers alike.<\/p>

Travelling together<\/strong>
Whether in organised hiking groups, on guided tours or on your own - the trails are a meeting point for many. This is where neighbours, friends and holidaymakers meet, all of whom share the same motivation: to actively experience the landscape. This makes hiking an integral part of our sporting focus - and one of the most direct ways to get to know the Costa Blanca.<\/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\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
