Calpe Valencia Spain 1st March 2024

It was a beautiful day when I climbed Penyal d'Ifac - the Phoenician's Northern Rock to Gibraltar's Southern Rock. This is looking north towards Cap d'Or & Moraira in the right distance.

The track winds around the mountainside from the notch - a third of the way down the slope - partially built up with drystone walling. Just visible are the chains fastened to the rock to hold onto in those areas without the support underfoot. It's not a really difficult climb but you have to watch your step in these areas.

It's well worth the effort when you reach the 332m summit - or as my iPhone has it: 67 "flights of stairs"!
