Be careful, if you take the ramp directly from La Mora at the roundabout, you'll be pushing your bike! This is a steep hiking trail and not suitable for mountain bikers.

All the paths leading to the tower of Sant Simplici are good but a little technical on the whole ascent as on the descent. The 360° panoramic view is worth the effort.

Several more or less technical paths to access Sant Simplici. All are good and pass through the scrubland. To arrive quietly at the tower or a 360° panorama of this limestone mountain.
