How to get there by car: From Ondara take the CV 729 and 728 to Sagra, then the CV 715 towards Pego. About 3km before Pego look out on the left for CV712 to Val d'Ebo. (scenic route this!) Do not enter Val d'Ebo, but soon after crossing the river bridge just outside the village turn right towards Alcala de la Jovada. After 9.7km (near the 7 Km milestone) stop at a well marked picnic area on the left. Parking is on both sides of the road. Drive takes about 1 hour 30 mins from Javea.
