Vistas de la ValldignaPasos sobre roca y recorrido panorámico
El Pas de Cabres combina tramos de camino equipado, pasos sobre roca y zonas expuestas donde la atención debe ser constante. Aunque la dificultad técnica se considera baja o moderada dentro de las ferratas, no debe subestimarse.
The reward is a very scenic route, with views towards the city, the coast, Les Creus mountain and the Mediterranean landscape around Tavernes de la Valldigna.
Exit from the equipped section and circular return
After completing the main section, the route continues towards the circular return. At this point it is important not to improvise shortcuts and to follow the track shown on the map, as the mountains have paths and turn-offs that can greatly extend the activity.
The long variant, available at the end of the page, extends the experience towards Alt de les Creus for groups with more time, fitness and experience.
