The best MTB trails around La Serratella

Interesting bar to stop and take a shot

One of the seven giant chairs on the Placa de l'Arc. The chair is positioned somewhat off-road, requiring about 100-200 meters of riding over fairly eroded, rocky paths. Mountain bikers shouldn't have a problem with this, but other cyclists might – but it's doable with a bit of skill.

Incredible mountain pass. It is quite easy to get to. The village is small and has a fountain.

An old farmhouse where a ship-shaped structure has been built and where its owner has a very peculiar kind of museum.

Beautiful blue giant chair, accessible via the rough gravel road, sometimes not easy to drive (only recommended for wider tires)

Beautiful blue giant chair. The route coming from the north is partly very rough gravel, not easy to ride and not recommended for narrow tires.

Historically, it was part of the Encomienda de Les Coves de Vinroma and with it it was the lordship of Blasco de Alagón between the years 1235 and 1242. Later, it was the Templars who were in charge of governing the town. In the archives and annotations of the town map of Albocácer it appears that originally the town was called Sierra de Biarach. During the first half of the 16th century, it took the name of Sarratella de Biarach and it was not until the last third of the same century when the place name of Sarratella was made official. The demographic indicators of the town have been growing throughout its history until it surpassed the barrier of 700 inhabitants in the first years of the 20th century. Since 1900 the population has been constantly reducing until it currently reaches 93 registered people. Its geographical location and orography seduced prehistoric groups. Very close to the hill where the hermitage is located there was an Epipalaeolithic site. Furthermore, in several areas of its territory, cave paintings have been discovered that are part of the Levantine rock art, declared a World Heritage Site. Social media Economic activities are dedicated to agriculture and livestock. Agriculture is traditionally based on dryland agriculture, with olive and almond cultivation predominating. Livestock farming is mainly based on grazing and pig and poultry farms. The scarce industry is related to agriculture and oil. Urban tour La Sarratella is a small town, which is very easy to get around. During the tour you can see the harmony that the houses maintain with each other, the tranquility of its people and the dark green of the mountainous landscape that can be seen from almost any area of the town. Despite being a small town, the places of interest that we can find are many and quite varied: The building of the old oven, with clear medieval traces. The torrent, located in the lower part of the town, whose complex is made up of a fountain, a water trough and some washing places. The town hall inaugurated in 1958 with some porches that limit the public part of the common part of the town halls of the medieval period. The hermitage of San Juan and the Church of San Miguel, where there is a front of the green velvet altar on which you can see Saint Michael embroidered fighting against the devil. Landscape The landscape is very mountainous, with large slopes that provide impressive views to the sea. Holm oaks and bushes scented with rosemary, thyme, lavender and other aromatic plants predominate. The climate is cool and pleasant in summer contrasting with the cold winter. The town is located at about 800 meters above sea level, although the highest point in the area is at 937 meters where the hermitage of San Juan Nepomuceno is located with an unbeatable panoramic view.

Interesting section of the Stone Route in Sec Santa Bárbara that runs through magnificent trails with ingenious Seca Stone constructions. Highly recommended and perfectly signposted.
