Algar River Dam

Highlight • Monument

Small dam on the Algar River where the Guadalest joins it. There are some information panels about the local flora and fauna.

A beautiful “tunnel” created by the surrounding vegetation

Highlight • Trail

The trail is absolutely doable! The MTB S0 classification is actually appropriate, and in places it changes to S1, but without any further difficulty. Partly a “cycle path”.

The path was badly damaged in the last storm and is no longer passable for mountain bikers! A large wave was released from the dam, which turned the path into a field of rubble; there are also some very large holes that were difficult even for us hikers. Individual sections are passable, the path as a whole no longer.

Guadalest Dam

Highlight • Monument

A steep, asphalted road leads down to the back of the dam. If the large iron gate is closed, there is a smaller, unlocked door in the fence. Driving through is permitted, and the trail is open to mountain bikes all the way down to the coastline in Altea.

Guadalest Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

TOP tour. The path leads around the entire reservoir, and the Castell Guadalest can be viewed from all sides. The route around the lake leads over the dam and through the mountain village of Beniardá. Worth seeing! 👍

Embassament de Guadalest, the reservoir of Guadalest, is certainly one of the most famous reservoirs in the area from Torrevieja to Alicante. Thanks to the beautiful castle in Guadalest with the even more fantastic view of the reservoir, this lake is known to many people and is a popular excursion destination.

Excellent! The tour around the reservoir is a real highlight! 👌🚴‍♀️👏 The path leads around the entire reservoir, and the Castell Guadalest can be viewed from all sides. The route around the lake can either be started over the dam and followed the path along the water or the tour can be started in the mountain village of Beniardá.
