Faro de l'Albir

Reviewed By Wetravelalot12

The lighthouse is located in the Parc Natural de la Serra Gelada.This is a 5km round trip walk from the car park to the light house. Parking is free. There are other off shoots from the route which you can take. There is a path to take you down to a small rocky bay. Another path to take you to a viewing area, and another one to take you to an area where they did mining many years ago. The main path to the lighthouse is all tarmac so we saw people with buggies a few runners and a few cyclists. The path is on a small incline all the way up, but then you get the down hill part coming back. There is a toilet at the car park, but none en route or at the top where the light house is. Take your own drinks too as there is no where to purchase any on the way. The views along the pathway are stunning and provide a way of looking back over the bay to Albir and out to sea. The route also has a few information boards along the way for you to stop and read. Near the beginning of the route, there is a picnic area.

Faro de Santa Pola

Reviewed By jodieerx

On a ride out to Alicante, we decided to detour and have a stop here. Absolutely gorgeous views and was just nice to have a look and pass an hour on. Decent parking and a great free attraction. There are 2 Sky walks, one which goes over the end of the cliff and you are able to dangle from the end and take some beautiful unusual photos! Definitely worth the visit
