Short and steep climb, nice view over the Bellus dam. For a circular variant, instead of going around the electric pylon, go down the path that returns on the other side of the Aventador.

The La Cova Negra municipal natural area is located in the municipality of Játiva, province of Valencia. In the Cova Negra is the Middle Paleolithic site in which remains of Homo Neanderthal have appeared. This natural area is located in the narrow valley formed by the Albaida River, as it crosses the reliefs of the Sierra Grossa, at the exit of the so-called Estret de les Aigües. In the widest meander formed by the Albaida River, at the height of Pico del Paller, you can see the Cova Negra, named for the blackish appearance of its walls.

I would suggest this being a good place to plan and start your hikes from. Easy access to the river and points of interest.

One of the ways to cross the river itself. I tried several others in the vicinity which were not suitable as the river flow to high

La Cova Negra is a cavity that is located in a gorge called the Strait of Waters. Its black color is mainly due to the smoke from the bonfires made by its former inhabitants, the Neanderthals who occupied it for a few months of the year. An important amount of flint tools and other archaeological remains have been found here.

The Pont Sec ravine aqueduct, also known as Arcades d'Alboi, is part of the old Canal de Bellús in Xàtiva, a construction of medieval origin that has its origin in the source of Bellús. It traces its route along the Albaida river for ten kilometers and allowed a constant supply of water to the city of Xàtiva.

Located next to the Guarner mill, a hydraulic mill to grind wheat and obtain flour. The necessary energy was obtained by partially diverting part of the river bed through a channel, the force of which activated the operation of the mill's gears.

La Cova Negra is an important archaeological site, located in the widest meander of the Albaida river. It was home to Neanderthal man in the Paleolithic. The cave gets its name from the dark color of the walls. Human remains and paintings have been found inside.
