It is incredible to think that one of the most beautiful and most suitable towns for rural tourism has less than 1000 inhabitants, but it is. A jewel located in the Valencian mountains in which, in addition to being able to get lost, we can also enjoy one of its greatest secrets.
Chulilla and its magical hanging bridges
Whether you are a lover of nature and hiking, or simply want to get lost and enjoy rural tourism and disconnection, Chulilla is the perfect town for it.
Even before entering its paths, this municipality is already charming with its panoramic views, its white houses with flowers that adorn the facades, or its historic center. Our recommendation is that if you are looking for a good lunch or dinner, Do not forget to go through the Plaza de la Baronía.
A hiking route not suitable for people with vertigo
But what really amazes any traveler is its best kept (open) secret: the Hanging Bridges Route. Hiking lovers will enjoy this route where you can also practice climbing.
One of the advantages is that it is relatively short, about five kilometers and the difficulty is medium-low. So it is suitable for beginners. Of course, we must take into account that it presents some unevenness. But it will be worth it when you cross one of its suspension bridges, more than 15 meters high and up to 21 meters long.
If bridges aren’t your thing, You can always go to the Charco Azul Route, with a lower difficulty and distance than that of the bridges, and will guide you through the entire Turia River Canyon. Also, if you go in summer, you can stop to take a bath. A marvel.
