1. Faro del Albir: Easy Hiking in Sierra Helada Natural Park 🌊
For a gentle outdoor activity during your corporate event, the walk to Albir Lighthouse in L’Alfàs del Pi is an excellent option.
Located in Serra Gelada Natural Park, also known as Sierra Helada, 🌿 this route covers approximately 5 kilometres out and back along a paved path. Its easy terrain makes it suitable for a relaxed team outing, with stops to enjoy the scenery.
What can you see along the way? Views of Altea Bay, the distinctive outline of the Bèrnia mountain range and landmarks such as Cova de la Balena. At the end of the trail, you will find the lighthouse and the remains of Torre Bombarda, a historic coastal watchtower. 📸
Corporate event idea: Invite colleagues to walk and talk in pairs, then finish with a team photo overlooking the Mediterranean.

2. Guadalest Reservoir: A Mid-Level Hiking Option Among the Mountains 💚
For a longer walk, the circular route around Guadalest Reservoir from Beniardà covers approximately 10 kilometres along trails and paved sections.
Its difficulty deserves clarification: the local council describes the route as technically easy. For a corporate event programme, however, its length and the sustained effort involved make it a mid-level option.
Along the way, enjoy views of the reservoir, pine woods, farmland and the mountains surrounding the Guadalest Valley. The water’s colour and level vary with the seasons. Afterwards, you can add a visit to El Castell de Guadalest to explore its streets and take in the views from its scenic viewpoints. 🏘️
Corporate event idea: Set your team a small nature and landscape photography challenge, followed by a group meal in the Guadalest Valley.
VIP Highlight: A High-Altitude Culinary Experience Among the Vineyards 🍛🍷
3. Puig Campana: A Challenge for Experienced Teams ⛰️
For experienced hikers with a good level of fitness, the ascent of Puig Campana via the northern route, starting at Font del Molí in Finestrat, offers a substantial challenge.
Finestrat Tourism lists the route as approximately 12 kilometres out and back, with over 1,000 metres of elevation gain and a high difficulty rating. The trail includes steep slopes and loose stones, making careful, route-specific planning essential.
What can you see? Mountain scenery and sweeping views towards the Mediterranean, depending on visibility.
Corporate event idea: Offer an optional day of shared challenge with a professional guide, alongside a less demanding alternative for those who prefer it.
