The climb has a good asphalt surface, without too much elevation change, and it is worth noting the existence of a detour via an unpaved road from kilometer 9.3 to Sumarcárcel, which we have discarded due to not knowing its condition, given the rains of the previous days.

There are several points along this route from which you can admire the impressive silhouette of the Benicadell massif. The Alt de Benicadell, with a height of 1,105 metres, is a prominent peak in the Sierra de Benicadell, which forms a natural border between the provinces of Valencia and Alicante. The region around the Benicadell offers numerous opportunities for cycling tours that lead through varied landscapes with impressive views.

At the top, you can access the Parpalló Borrell Environmental Interpretation Center, a space to disseminate and help interpret the environmental aspects of the area where it is located.

This port is one of the classics of the area. It can be done uphill from Gandia, so the journey is 10km that starts with a very gentle slope and gets steeper at the end with the true port (3.5km). Going downhill, you have to be careful because high speeds are achieved thanks to the good asphalt and the layout of the curves. And I say that you need to be careful not only for physical integrity, but also because the civil guard charges cyclists with excessive speed.

Long port from Gandia to Drova and Barx. In the direction of the Gandia-Barx climb, a slight slope begins that gets steeper at the end and is demanding. On the way down you can enjoy a good road and a lot of speed. You have to be careful and not overdo it, not only for personal integrity, but also because the civil guard denounces cyclists in this section.
