Xativa / Cap de Sant Antoni / Moraira

Albufera Natural Park


We drive to the with mixed feelings Parc Natural de la l'Albufera. We would like to run a little, but only if there is shade, as the temperatures are already beyond the 30 ° C limit.

Parking is easy to find, but there are no trees anywhere. So go on.

Xativa


In der Nähe des Zentrums finden wir eine Parkmöglichkeit. Von hier aus fragen wir uns zur Tourist-Info durch. Die Damen dort sind nett und hilfsbereit und händigen uns eine Informationsbroschüre in deutsch aus, in der auch ein kleiner Stadtplan mit allen Sehenswürdigkeiten enthalten ist. 

Leider sind wir etwas zu spät dran, denn der Markt, der sich hier durch die Gassen zieht wird bereits zum größten Teil abgebaut.
We reach the Fuente Real de los Veinticinco Caños (fountain with 25 water pipes), a former drinking trough, built between 1788 and 1809.

Two Spaniards are busy filling bottles and canisters with water. One of the gentlemen explains to me that you can drink the water (like from all fountains in the city) and shows it to me right away.

I do the same and take a few sips. It tastes really good.
Around the old wall we come to this interesting fountain
In der Tourist-Information wurde uns versichert, dass man auch mit dem Auto zur Burg hochfahren kann. Wir verzichten jedoch auf einen Besuch bei der Burg und fahren zu unserem nächsten Ziel.


Cap de Sant Antoni


Our sat nav is crazy today! With the help of a map and smartphone, we can still find the way. 38 ° 48'10.5 "N 0 ° 11'46.4" E. Parking spaces are available.

The cape is surrounded by water on 3 sides, has a height of 160m and offers a wide panoramic view.

Moraira


It's late afternoon now and we've had enough for today. We find a campsite in Moraira. It is pleasant here because of the cool wind. The course is located in a noble residential area about 600m from the sea and is terraced. The sanitary facilities are laid out with marble.

As usual, we go again today after dinner and walk towards the place, which makes a well-kept impression and has done without high-rise buildings.
