The Travel Group are planning a trip to Bocairent on 25th October 2024.
Enjoy a relaxing day out exploring the picturesque town of Bocairent. Just over an hours drive inland from Jávea, Bocairent is on the edge of the Sierra Mariola Natural Park.
The Magic Route is one of the best ways to discover the original medieval part of Bocairent. A gentle stroll along the trail will help unfold some of the key elements that have shaped the town: surprisingly tall buildings, streets of all shapes and sizes, and hanging houses that perch over the ravine below.
A visit to the old town, declared an artistic-historical heritage site, is highly recommended, especially after having seen its spectacular panorama from the road. The peculiar layout of its streets is in an Arabic style with climbs and descents, stairways, turnings, cul-de-sacs, little squares… A walk along its steep streets will reveal hidden corners of great beauty. Fountains and plant pots are dotted along the route that will lead you to the three chapels of the old quarter: Sant Joan, Mare de Déu dels Desemparats and Mare de Déu d’Agost.
