Sierra de Oltà.
The walk is generally gradual up and down via a wide hiking trail. On the way you pass La Ermita Vella, a chapel that also has a picnic area. Then you pass the ruins of the Finca Pastor and you have beautiful views of the Puig Campana, the Bernia, the Montgo and the famous rock Peñón de Ifach in Calpe. You arrive at Pas de la Canal. If you climb to the left to the top of this rock, you get an extra beautiful view of the Mediterranean Sea and the surrounding area. Past the Pas de la Canal it goes on a narrow footpath that goes very steeply downhill. The last part goes through forest on a wide hiking trail back to the starting point.
Well marked.
