Moncofa - trialeras de la punta

A short but quite technical trail route, good training; if you master these trails, you won't get stuck in many places. We leave the village by the gas station and take the side of the farm until the new bypass, reach the river and go to look for the new sewage treatment plant and continue to the main road, which we cross, and continue the path until "la punta". The first climb has two quite steep ramps but accessible; we keep climbing until we find (a little hidden) the first path. This is 100% rideable and there is no need to lower the saddle throughout the route, we continue along the paths until the industrial area "La Mezquita" where we go to look for the factory "Roca" and from there along paths to the second climb of the day, which starts accessible but ends in a steep ramp, although it is no more than 100 meters long, it is very steep. Once we are up at "la punta", we again go for the second trail, "la curta y recurta". This trail (which are two) is the shortest but the most technical of the route. I recommend lowering the bike saddle all the way down and enjoying the ride by letting yourself roll down its slopes and banks, taking special care with the carob tree that awaits us on the descent of a bank, placed there maliciously. The second part links with "la recurta", which is very short as its name suggests but is very fun and considerably less technical. We reach the end and go back up through the quarry (there's no problem since it's a rural road that crosses it) in search of the day's third ramp, "la rugosa", a steep ramp but of only 50 or 60 meters; a little ascending path and we are again at the top; we follow the track that leads us calmly to the entrance of the third trail, "la llarga". This trail is the longest of the day and possibly the most fun; it has a bit of everything, it is quite technical, a little leg-breaking and above all very varied and enjoyable. Once finished, we exit onto a rural path and crossing some gardens we reach the "Hotel Simba", from where we calmly cross an industrial area and a hamlet to return home.
