Property. Over 7,000 villas, homes and apartments for sale on the Costa

Located in the
beautiful Pop valley, as the only exception in a rough terrain, is Jalón / Xaló.
Its township spreads between the Sierra de la Solana and the Sierra de Bèrnia,
on the boundary of the Marina Baixa.
Although the urban nucleus is fully situated in a valley the majority of the
municipal term is spread among the mountains, the highest of which is the Serra
de Bèrnia. Other peaks are the Solana, the Sierra del Ferrer and the Penyó de la
Mica. Between mountains and caves, it is a municipality that has adapted to the
conditions imposed upon it throughout history. Today it sits happily, shining
and laborious between modernity and tradition. Always welcoming visitors who
come from all around to visit the village of Jalón / Xaló, especially on
Saturdays when, next to the river Xaló, one of the most popular antique markets
of the Costa Blanca is held. Cultivated products shape the principal attractions
of a gastronomy that also celebrates its own rice dishes "amb fesols i naps".
Sausages, wine and desserts made with almond complete the culinary offer.
There are great
natural enclaves in the term. The Sierra de Bernia, the Sierra del Ferrer, El
Castellet and the Penyó de la Mica surround the municipality, offering all its
natural beauty. A walk following the river Xaló leads to the natural site known
as "l'Assut". Besides the Font de Cabanyes and the ruins of the "Fuerte" (the
fort) there are other attractive excursions such as the Barranco del Curt and
the Pas dels Bandolers.
PR-V7 BÈRNIA
Approx. duration: 3.5 hours. Total Km.: 8 Km. Degree of difficulty: Average-High
DESCRIPTION
Take the road from Jalón/Xaló to Bèrnia in a journey of 12 km. At the end of this road
we will leave our cars in a pine grove next to the area known as Bancal Llarg,
where the camping area is located. We will take the dirt track to the left until
reaching the Font de Bèrnia (Bèrnia Spring) which has a constant volume
throughout the year. To the upper left-hand side of the spring we will continue
along the path regularly signposted by two parallel lines, one yellow and
another white one (indicative of the PRV-7 Bèrnia).
This sloping path will take us to the walls of the crest, where we will find a
small natural shelter with abundant humid vegetation, given that we are in the
shady area. We will continue on our way, slightly steeper, until reaching the
Forat (Hole), a natural open cavity in the rock that connects the two faces of
the mountain, with a length of 20 metres and a minimum height of 1 metre, on the
other side of the Forat we will make out a landscape opening out as far as the
sea, completely different to the North face, highlighting emblematic mountains
such as Aitana, Puig Campana, Ponoig and the Serra Gelada.
We will continue on our way towards the right along the west-facing hillside
until reaching the Fort de Bèrnia (Bèrnia Fort), a fort constructed during the
reign of Felipe II (Phillip II - 1562) to control and crush the revolts of the
Moorish population. In the present day the remains of the vaults and of the moat
walls are still to be seen. Before reaching the ruins of the Fort de Bèrnia at
some 50 metres below our path there is a spring in the form of a drinking
trough, the Font del Fort (Fort Spring), which might have water or not depending
on the time of year. From the upper part of the Fort and continuing towards the
west we will undertake the return journey to Les Cases de Bèrnia (The Houses of
Bèrnia). The path gently rises to a small hillock, embarking on the descent
along the track, always following the signs, until reaching our starting point
once more, Les Cases de Bèrnia.
