1. Briefing

Early kilometers present minor climbs post the town of Gata de Gorgos (Km 12).

Once you pass the village of Benissa (Km 15), the ascent to Port de Bèrnia kicks off—an extended, gentle climb with splendid scenery and sparse traffic, leading to a prolonged descent into Xaló.

On the return journey to Denia, a brief final climb emerges after Alcalalí (Km 55), culminating in the town of La Llosa de Camatxo.

2. CLimbs

A scenic rural stretch spanning 15 kilometers, offering relatively easy initial sections while boasting occasional segments reaching 9% gradients. Featuring picturesque vistas of the mountain of Bèrnia, the road maintains low traffic levels. The most demanding phase emerges towards the end, with gradients peaking at 17%.

3. Traffic

Consistently moderate traffic throughout the entire circuit, notably quiet around the Port de Bèrnia segment.

4. Road Quality

The overall road quality along the entire circuit is excellent. However, on the Bernia climb and descent, you may encounter some sections with slightly worn-out pavement.
