Alcala-Alcossebre Council Sports Department continues improving the walking and mountain bike routes in the municipality

Alcala-Alcossebre Council Sports Department is organising various events to increase the sports use of the natural spaces which are found in the municipality.  During July, mountain bike routes were held with Oropesa and Peñíscola as destinations and on 9^th August the route went to the Xivert Castle.  They have also carried out two walking routes to the Font de la Parra and the Santa Lucía hermitage and during future weeks they will be going to other parts of the Sierra d’Irta natural park, the Xivert castle on 16^th August and between coves on 30^th August.  In every case, the activities are led by monitors and are completely free.  To take part you must register in advance at the Tourist Information office and follow the recommendations, such as the use of appropriate clothing and keeping a safe distance between participants.

Also, the 22^nd and 23^rd August will be the weekend of the cycle-tour, with an unguided route with information points at the Church and the bell tower in Alcala and at the Sant Antoni hermitage in Capicorb.

Sports councillor, Jordí Batiste, encouraged “residents and visitors to take part in all these activities, taking advantage of the great natural potential of our municipality which makes it ideal for practising sport in the open air”.
