Hiking in Pla de Petracos: between cave paintings and holm oak forest

The Marina Alta keeps wonderful landscape secrets. Places unknown to many who are so close and at the same time, so far away. A good option to discover them are the program's proposals Family Excursions that each year organizes the City of Dénia.

Last week, about twenty people participated in the excursion scheduled to make the hiking route between Castell de Castells and the Pla de Petracos. A cobbled road that runs through a forest of carrascas near the font d'Espetla and ends in the cave paintings of the Pla de Petracos.

A six-kilometer tour through the interior of the Marina Alta that ended, as it should be, with a good meal. In this case, in Benigembla, where the group could also marvel at the murals that set the streets of the municipality.
