Tour Info

This point of interest is available as audio on the tour: Visit Alicante, The City of Sunshine
Here’s the entrance to the lift that takes you up to the castle, perched at the top of Mount Benacantil. After some thought, we’ve decided to recommend this option, even though it’s a paid service, which we normally try to avoid. But the climb is fairly steep, and with the heat of the day, you may prefer to pay the small fee rather than hike all the way up. For those who do want to walk, just keep going about 400 metres to your right until you reach the trailhead. Whichever route you choose, we’ll meet you at the top, where access to the castle grounds is completely free.
