Hike on Alt de la Montera in Benidorm

Benidorm, located in the province of Alicante on the Mediterranean cost of Spain. New cities bring new experiences, though in my opinion Benidorm is very touristic, very “we are so USA” blink blink lights everywhere and many more foreigners than Spanish folks. It doesn’t feel like Spain at all, experience it for yourself. It is worth a visit. One of the areas around is the hill Alt de la Montera with its 337m peak.

It goes up steep, 337 meters doesn’t sound much, but considering 20 degrees, blue sky and therefore strong south european december sunshine makes it more challenging than it sounds.

The way up starts already with amazing views
