The Royal Monastery of Santa Maria de Valldigna was founded by James II the Just on March 15, 1298, who gave the Alfàndec valley to Abbot Bononat of Vila-seca to found a monastery of the Cistercian order, a branch of the Santes Creus monastery. It was the first monastery of such importance built in the ancient Kingdom of Valencia, after the Christian conquest. Days after the royal donation, James II, brother Bononat and his entourage met at the place of Ràfol (a Christian village in the valley founded after the conquest of James I) to take possession of the territory, plus one mile inland, the castles of Marinyén, Alcalà and the tower of Mondúber.

"This is the exact point where the bike wants to fly... but the view forces you to brake. Serra de les Agulles in the background and Santa Maria de la Valldigna below. A rewarding descent!" Then, refocus as the road twists and turns just beyond with a double bend that demands your attention and puts your brakes to the test.

Pass details: 6.3 km | 301 m elevation gain | average gradient of 4.8% | ramps of up to 9.8%.
