Ride two

Difficulty-simple
Length-80km


Good  roads,
twisty in places
Rest points
Excellent views

This ride provides minor road riding through, in part, mountains, a number of local towns, villages and hamlets.
There is a mixture of  'interesting' roads through the mountains (about 15km)

Tibi provides the first stop where coffee etc can be brought in one of the local cafes while watching village life go on.

At Jijona, a bustling mountain town  you can stop for lunch, or visit the famous Turron museum or just for a drink in the typical Spanish town with narrow streets and tall houses. After relaxing you will drive back on good fast roads to El Campello and on to Alicante Bike camp passing through San Vicente.

Although it is a short ride allow at least 3 hours for the full tour.

The main points of interest in this ride are in Jijona which overlooks the entire area. On a clear day you can see from Benidorm to Alicante.

The ride provides for a lunch or refreshment point in Jijona where you will be able to see the turron museums and factories. Jijona is the main centre for Turron in Spain and, of course ice cream which is a delight to sample.
