"This is the exact point where the bike wants to fly... but the view forces you to brake. Serra de les Agulles in the background and Santa Maria de la Valldigna below. A rewarding descent!" Then, refocus as the road twists and turns just beyond with a double bend that demands your attention and puts your brakes to the test.

On the CV-675 after Barx and leaving the La Drova development towards Gandía we find a recreational area where we can stop to rest or eat something, there is a fountain where you can refill water for the journey.
