Greatest hits

Route: Moraira/Benitachell - Gata de Gorgos - Benitachell/Moraira

New to the area and want to find out what mountain biking is like over here? Than this ride has a great collection of trails you should get to know! The ride is really of combination of the best elements mountain biking offers: single track, some rocky parts, small drops and also small roads and gravel paths to get some miles in, hence the name "Greatest hits"!

The longest version of this tour starts at Snakebite HQ in Moraira and takes you almost immediately off road. For about 15K we cruise flowy trails through forests and fields, before descending into the dry Gorgos river bed. Here we cross the valley in the direction of the foot of Montgó mountain where we will follow a trail to the towns of Jesus Pobre and Gata de Gorgos. In this village we usually break for coffee at the church square to recharge ourselves for the final third of this ride. We drop again into the river bed and from there we climb back to Benitachell and Moraira.

Based on your personal preferences and especially in summer we will run a shorter version of this tour, up to some 30 - 35 K.

  • Distance: 40 Km (approximately, we can do shorter distances).
  • Climbing: 500 m. (approximately).
  • Duration: about 3 hours.

The ´Vall de Pop´ or Jalón  valley is a touristic gem. The beautiful landscape with picturesque villages scattered around is definitely worth a visit. And what better way to discover this than on the bike.

  • Climbing: about 650 m.
  • Duration: 3 - 4 hours (depending on breaks).

Down to the river

Route: Villalonga - Beniarrés - Villalonga

This tour is something else. It is a beautiful route on the Vía Verde del Serpis, a former train track that originally linked the towns of Alcoy and Gandía. The most spectacular section of the old train route is the one between the towns of Villalonga and Beniarrés. From Villalonga we follow the Serpis river. The surface of the route consists for some 80% of gravel and passes through several tunnels. Only at the beginning and end of the route there is an asphalted road. Beniarrés is a perfect rest stop for lunch after which we descent to the Beniarrés estuary lake. After the visit to the lake and Serpis river bed we climb back to Via Verde track that takes us in a straight, descending line to the point where we started.

  • Distance: approximately 45 Km.
  • Climbing: about 500 m.
  • Duration: 3 - 4 hours (depending on breaks).

  • The cost of this tour is € 49,50 p.p. (min. three riders).
