Bernia Ridge Traverse

Click to Enlarge

With it's eastern end starting near the coast between Altea and Calpe, and stretching for 3.5Km inland the Bernia Ridge is a striking local landmark that is hard to miss as you drive up and down the Costa Blanca.

Starting out at 08:30 myself and 2 friends (Terry & Jim) set off towards the East Summit. After 8 glorious hours which were filled with lots of scrambling, one piece of technical climbing and several abseils as well as never ending, breathtaking 360° views in perfect conditions (cool but with clear blue skies) our Bernia traverse was over. Back at the car with a well earned beer in hand as we looked back up at the ridge Jim described our excursion as 'one of the best days out on the Costa Blanca' (and he's had a few!).
