Took a day trip to Guadalest Valley with friends enjoyed the views, the lovely walks and lunch in the restaurant . Visited the museums and craft shops . To visit the castle you walk through the church there is a small charge of 4 e . Well worth a visit with friends and family .

I travelled from Alicante. Get line 1 to Benidorm tram stop - I think you could get the 841 from mercado. The bus stop is right outside the tram stop - just to the right. It doesn’t mention bus 16 but it showed up about 10.10am. Bus ticket just under 7 euros return. Guadalest is a pretty village - a bit touristy with lots of tourist shops . If you pay 4 euros to go into the castle bit you get the best view of the white bell tower. Bus leaves at 1.30pm from the car park where it dropped you off. 2 hours is more than enough time there.

One of the most fascinating places in the Alicante province with breathtaking views!
Totally woth a one day trip.
The road to Gaudalest worth to be mentioned as well. It is a beautiful mountain road with scenic views. So, if you have a motorcycle, convertible car (we got a Mazda MX-5) or any other interesting vehicle, the road to Guadalest will be something you will remember.

We rented kayaks by the lake for an hour (10€ per man), swam a little - main jump from the edge🤗 amazing views. The trip there, insert the last part, is easier challenging and must be backed for the opposing. However it all worth it and a great experience. we spent about five hours from Altea and it was inclusive lunch

This tiny village is worth a stop if you’re in the area. Its about 30 minutes from benidorm and Villajoyosa. Perfect for a half-day trip. It sits perched in between a valley on some high up cliffs and although there aren’t many activities other than some museums, it’s a great place to walk around, shop for some cute souvenirs and have lunch. The views of the village and the reservoir are beautiful. The restaurants are well priced and the parking is cheap as well (municipal €2). Many of the residence speak both English and Spanish. Very steep and narrow cobbled streets that probably aren’t ideal for wheelchairs or high heals.

We booked a day trip to Guadalest with Round Town Travel. Lynn our guide on the coach was great. She was very knowledgeable and shared lots of information about the villages and sights we passed on route.
Guadalest is lovely village with amazing views. It has lots of lovely shops and restaurants and 3 museums.
The Dolls House Museum is much more than dolls houses - it is a work of art by one man. It is incredible. It has to be seen to appreciate how wonderful it is.
We had a nice 2 course meal for €11 each in a local restaurant.
Guadalest is well worth visiting.

The place is really beautiful and even the drive there is fun. The place itself is actually quite small, but beautiful. Unfortunately, almost every house has been converted into a souvenir shop, which offers a beautiful view but no nice "insights". We were there on October 31, 2023 in overcast weather, it was pretty full (including the parking lots), and I can't imagine what it looks like here in the season.

A great regular trip venue within easy travel of the coast. Cooler than the coast though often opposite and warmer on sunny days in winter (example 30C in Feb 2020 while only 22C at Benidorm). Also on foggy days can be clear at this altitude
Well worth the climb to the 'castle if only for the views. Great little museums in the village and reasonably priced bars and cafes.

Interesting mountain town with winding cobbled streets, restaurants and gift shops stocking local delicacies and crafts. Lots to see and do.
Lovely views from the top. Avoid the ladies who take a picture of you as you walk through the archway- they make a key rings with your pics!

Overwhelming, that is the best statement for this beautiful walk over the deep descent, water puddles, old goat paths, large and small pebbles. Beautiful and then climbing out of the valley is tough but also so beautiful! Then we arrive in Collosa, a small cozy village where we take the 5 p.m. bus back to Benidorm. What a beautiful day we think of the Tingeling walking group. How nice that we were able to do all this again, it was already four years ago.
