Coll de Rates

Whether you are a pro cyclist or a first-time amateur riding in North Costa Blanca, then without doubt Coll de Rates (and possibly the Tossal dels Diners extension) will be one of several first climbs you will tackle (and the most memorable). It’s not the longest, highest, or steepest climb the region has to offer unless you include Tossal dels Diners, but it does have mythical status among locals and tourists alike and it is a climb you're likely to do again and again. Don’t stress if you are on holiday and don’t have a bike with you, we provide road bike hire and guided bike tours all year round here and can also provide clothing, helmets, and different pedal options.
