Weekend in Viallajosa, South Alicante 7/8 March ( Sold Out)
Join us for a special overnight weekend adventure to the southern part of Alicante — a region that’s just a little too far to fully enjoy in a single day. This carefully chosen early-March date is no accident: after years of running trips, I’ve learned that Valencia can be very lively on Sunday mornings during Fallas… so we’ll be sleeping peacefully by the sea instead.
Our base for the night will be the beautiful coastal town of Villajoyosa, famous for its colourful houses, relaxed atmosphere, and one of the cleanest beaches on the Costa Blanca.
Day 1 – Mountains, Culture & Big Views
We depart Valencia and head south to Alcoy, stopping for morning coffee in one of Alicante’s most striking inland cities. After parking, we’ll walk across the dramatic viaduct spanning the deep ravine that cuts through the city, before visiting the impressive Plaza del Ayuntamiento. Coffee will be enjoyed in the elegant Plaza de Dins, a charming square that feels like a miniature Plaza Mayor in Madrid.
From here, we continue to the highlight hike of the day: Cabeçó d’Or, widely regarded as the second most emblematic mountain walk in the province after Puig Campana.
- Distance: 10.5 km circular route
- Start: 480 m above sea level
- Summit: 1,209 m
The hike follows a dramatic ridge where the contrast on each side is unforgettable. One side reveals sharp, knife-like rock formations more typical of Murcia, while the other opens up to sweeping coastal views from Peñón de Ifach all the way to the Murcia border. Even if you choose not to climb to the final summit, the views from the ridge at 1,150 m are just as spectacular.
After the hike, we head to Villajoyosa, our home for the night. Accommodation is in a centrally located pension, with en-suite rooms (room only). Enjoy a stroll along the beach, dinner in town, and a relaxed coastal evening.
Day 2 – Coastal Paths & Easy Walking
Sunday is all about taking it slower.
We start with breakfast by the beach, before driving inland to the Pasarela de Relleu. This scenic 3.5 km walk is often called the “Mini Caminito del Rey” — inspired by the famous Andalusian route. It features a spectacular 1 km elevated boardwalk suspended above a ravine, including glass-bottom sections.
- Entrance fee: €3.50 (not included)
- More info: https://pasareladerelleu.es/
Back on the coast, we finish with a relaxed walk from Cala de Xarco, climbing gently up to the watchtower before enjoying a picnic lunch with stunning sea views.
To round off the weekend in style, we’ll stop for a classy drink at the Mascarat Yacht Club before returning to Valencia.

After soaking up the history, we’ll head to the nearby natural wonder of Los Órganos de Benitandús. These dramatic rock formations are a true hidden gem, and we’ll take the most direct and rewarding trail to the panoramic viewpoint at the top.
