Sant Nicolau Ravine

Highlight • River

Here the smaller fishing and sports boats are moored in the Barranco de Sant Nicolau. The sea water reaches far into the urban area of Gandia. From the bridge you have a beautiful view of the boats and the houses on the water.

Gandia Harbor

Highlight • Structure

Very worth seeing, a small but nice harbor that is worth a detour. The fishing boats arrive here in the afternoon and dock in front of the historic warehouses. The port is located at the mouth of the Sant Nicolau river. There are various bars and restaurants around the pier where you can take a break.

Watchtower of Xeraco

Highlight • Monument

The tower is one of the thirteen coastal surveillance towers whose construction was ordered in 1575 by Vespasiano Gonzaga, Viceroy of Valencia, on the orders of Philip II, to organize the defense of the Valencian coast against attacks by the Turks and Berbers. Mainly pirates who landed on the coasts, invaded, destroyed crops, looted towns and took prisoners.

The defense system was regulated by decrees that came into force in the 16th and 17th centuries. With this particular tower it was possible to control the area between the Alfándec Tower in Tabernes de Valldigna and the now missing tower in the Grao de Gandía. The historic tower is located on the right bank of the mouth of the Vaca River.

Duke's Pond Spring

Highlight • Lake

L'Ullal is an aquatic ecosystem, between Gandia beach and the city, inhabited by several animal species. This natural space is a very quiet place a few meters from the Alquería del Duc where you can see different types of birds in the middle of nature. In the L'Ullal area there is the environmental interpretation center of the Safor marshes, also called the nature classroom, which offers free information about these natural spaces.

An ullal is a coastal wetland with fresh water (water outcrop) in which different animal (especially birds) and plant species live. This wetland is part of the Gandia marsh and plays a fundamental role in the hydrological cycle. This water reserve helps regulate the local climate, temperatures and humidity.

L'Ullal has an itinerary that surrounds it. It takes approximately twenty minutes to go around, although it is recommended to take more time to enjoy the tree-lined rest area and the observatory to observe the different birds. By maintaining silence you can see different ducks, geese, turtles, dragonflies, etc.

The itinerary is adapted for wheelchairs. The visit is free and guarantees fun for all ages who like nature, animals and tranquility. In passing, it is also recommended to visit the nature classroom exhibition and see the Alquería del Duc fortified building.

If you want to follow the tour, please skip the geugel about Xeresa.🤦 It's better to take the direct route to Gandia and then up the 12 km mountain👍😄
The church in Simat is worth checking out.
If you don't leave your backpack behind, the route is 4 km shorter.😉

Finally made the tour to Barx after 3 attempts. My problem was avoiding roads and cities. It was only possible by avoiding the cities and it was still nice. Unfortunately, the image positions do not match the tour at all. Well, whoever follows them will recognize it again. I have no idea what went wrong.
Even though it was mostly …
