This entire route along the coast is 5 stars for the tourists and the mountain bikers. For them it is a no brainer. Beautiful gem. 2 stars for the hard riders as it must be said it is largely unpaved except for the steeper sections (which is really appreciated regardless). However, even for the hard riders I would like to make a case that this is probably still your best bet traversing Parc Natural Serra d'Irta. Problem is lack of available alternatives in this region.

This entire route along the coast is 5 stars for the tourists and the mountain bikers. For them it is a no brainer. Beautiful gem. 2 stars for the hard riders as it must be said it is largely unpaved except for the steeper sections (which is really appreciated regardless). However, even for the hard riders I would like to make a case that this is probably still your best bet traversing Parc Natural Serra d'Irta.

Problem is lack of available alternatives in this region. You got three other North-South options. Either take a train, take the N road with moderate and fast traffic, or take a 20km detour through Sant Mateu (and skipping all major climbs/sights or adding another 30km to get to Peñíscola and Alcossebre). Perhaps, you may decide not to do either 3 and commit yourself to either side of Serra d'Irta, but if you do travel latitudinal you have a compelling option here along the coast. Just make sure to bring a set of spare tires and mechanic kit. They might/likely come in handy.

This climb is a rougher section and here I got a puncture. Therefore less stars.
