O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Perched 200 meters above the Mediterranean, this lookout offers a vertigo-inducing view of the razor-sharp Mascarat Gorge. The cliffs here were carved by the Algar River over millions of years, creating a dramatic split in the Sierra de Bernia mountain range.
Istaknuto: At sunset, the apricot-colored houses of Altea's old town seem to glow against the deep blue sea far below. On clear days you can spot the outline of Ibiza on the horizon, a faint purple smudge 100 kilometers across the water.
Insajderski saveti
- Bring binoculars to scan the cliff faces for nesting peregrine falcons that hunt along the gorge.
- The guardrail-free eastern edge of the lookout gives the best photo angles but watch your footing on loose gravel.
- Stop at the nearby Repsol gas station for surprisingly good local pastries and coffee at half the old town prices.
- Visit on a weekday morning in spring when wildflowers carpet the gorge edges and tourist traffic is minimal.

Da li ste čuli za besplatne šetnje?
Nakon putovanja u preko 30 zemalja, postoji jedna stvar koju bih voleo da mi je neko rekao od prvog dana, a koja je potpuno promenila način na koji doživljavam nove gradove.
Besplatne šetnje. Da, zaista besplatne. Nije potrebna kreditna kartica. Nema skrivenih uslova.
Lokalni vodič, 2-3 sata
Glavne znamenitosti, skriveni dragulji, lokalne priče
100% zasnovano na napojnicama

Radio sam ove ture u desetinama gradova i bile su vrhunac skoro svakog putovanja. Ako posećujete Altea, Spain, uradite to prvog dana. Zahvalićete mi kasnije.
