About this experience

Discover an adventurous and scenic mountain hike followed by the relaxation of the natural thermal springs. This is a sensational way to escape the city and experience the natural beauty of the Valencian region.

The tour kicks off with a 9 km/6-mile circular hike (3 hrs), leading you through a dramatic canyon framed by towering cliffs and pine forests. Enjoy panoramic mountain views and stunning gorge landscapes, taking in the tranquil atmosphere of this serene location.

Alternatively, a shorter and easier hike of 6 km (2 hrs) can be chosen. From June to September only the shorter hike is possible.

The thermal springs of Montanejos maintain a temperature of 25 °C/77 °F. Take a dip and swim in the crystal blue water.

You also visit the horizontal water jet created from a dam and the reservoir.

You can choose to have lunch in a village restaurant or bring your own lunch to have at the springs.

In July and August a swim under a waterfall can be chosen instead of the shorter hike.
