    Anspruchsvoller Bergwanderweg. Besonders der Aufstieg erfordert gute Kondition und Trittsicherheit.

    Wir haben heute eine light-Variante der Tour ohne Kletterequipment gemacht. War auch sehr schön. Wir sind gestartet wie beschrieben, dann aber durch den Felstunnel auf die andere Seite des Felsriegels statt auf den Grat gewechselt. Nach ca. 30-45 Minuten Gehzeit vom Tunnel aus gibt es einen steilen Weg durch Schotter (gestrichelter Weg auf der Karte) zurück auf die Grattour. Die schwierigsten Passagen der Grattour hat man damit ausgespart, kann den Rest der Tour aber so gehen wie oben beschrieben. Unsere Tour war eine runde, schöne Sache mit leichtem Gepäck. Schwierigkeit ungefähr eine schwarze Wanderung. Wir haben 5 Stunden für die Runde benötigt (mit Pausen).

    Sehr schöne, aber nicht einfache Wanderung mit tollen Aussichten über Calle, Altea, Benidorm und das Hinterland. Abwechslungsreiche Flora und ein verfallenes Fort, das sich zu erkunden lohnt. Möglichst aber die Runde linksherum gehen, so hat man zwar starke Anstiege aber weniger Geröll beim Heruntergehen.
