Free hiking tours in Calpe
One of the most popular hiking trails of northern Alicante province is by far the Oltá Circular route that starts at the Mount Oltá camping area (very close to the road N-332 exit to Calpe) and reaches the very mountaintop.
Although the track is in very good condition and is not difficult to do at all, it rises 500 meters up the starting point level. You do not have to be an elite athlete to successfully finish the trail, but it does take a certain focus level to keep pace all the way to the top.
Just for the sights you can enjoy while on the trail (and especially the one in the top), the 4-hour effort it takes to do this route is worth it. From above, you can see a beautiful picture of the Rock of Ifach and Bernia Range.
It is advisable to bring enough food and water for the day, proper footwear and long trekking pants to avoid scratches.
The guided tour through the Sierra de Oltà departs from the camping area on Friday 25th March at 10:00 h. This activity is free of charge.
