Tips from the Community
IF… you are going here, I recommend having something like 50/34 11-34 and disc brakes, there are steep angles up and down. The gravel part is short and on 28 mm road tyres is manageable. And one more, ride only from Lorcha towards Villalonga, otherwise you’ll hate your life.

It has a length of 9.8 kilometers and a climb of 359 vertical meters with a slope of 3.7% on average, which implies a difficulty level of 201. The top of the climb is located at 382 meters above sea level. 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.

There are few options to achieve TOP of the Maneuver mauntain. The easiest one is just follow road for the special vehicles. Even if you have selected this option - you will have many challenging alternatives sections during hiking up. Better to make a hike by the good weather (no clouds). 360 degree view from the top is spectacular and one is able to see Ibiza/Formentera islands.
