Sierra de Oltà in Calpe
Nature nearby, open views, and a hassle-free circular route.
Here, the plan is simple: a marked circular route, not too difficult, with shaded areas, drinking water, toilets, picnic areas, and a forest path that takes about two hours to complete. Perfect for those who want to escape the noise, move around a little, and spend the day among trees and great views.
What you will find along the way
- The Ermita Vella de Sant Francesc, halfway between a cultural stop and a resting spot.
- The Pou de la Mola, a traditional well carved in stone that tells of the area's agricultural past.
- A summit with an observation point, without railings or platforms: just the edge, the view, and silence.
