Description

Context The El Bolón Vía Ferrata is located in Elda, Alicante, providing a complete climbing experience across three progressively challenging sections (K1, K2, and K3). This route traverses rugged rock formations and deep gorges, with sweeping views of the Vinalopó Valley and the Sierra del Cid. The Vicente Soler zip line, at 110 meters, is the longest in the Valencian Community and adds a thrilling finale to the adventure.

The Experience After a safety briefing and distribution of certified equipment, the journey begins at the Mirador de Elda (K1), ascending via ladders and hanging footbridges. The main K3 section presents vertical and aerial challenges, where textured rock surfaces and wind from the canyon enhance every movement. The zip line descent delivers a powerful adrenaline rush while offering breathtaking panoramic views of the valley below. At the end, participants return to the starting point and receive a personalized photo report.

For Whom Ideal for those with moderate outdoor experience, families with children aged 5 and up (offering escape options), and individuals seeking a moderate challenge with professional guidance. Not recommended for those with severe vertigo or limited mobility.

Local Context Elda, shaped by its mining heritage and nestled near the Sierra del Cid, provides a rich natural and cultural backdrop for the Vía Ferrata. Clear signage and regular maintenance reflect local commitment to safety and sustainable active tourism.
