JALON VALLEY
Costa Blanca Villas and Apartments

The Jalon Valley (also called Vall de Pop) is about 30 minutes drive inland from the coastal towns of Denia, Javea and Moraira. Jalon has many holiday villas and apartments for rent for those seeking the traditional Spanish rural way of life. Here you'll find towns and villages nestling in pretty valleys and rugged mountains that have changed little in centuries. One of the best times to visit this beautiful area is late January and early February, when the whole valley is carpeted with pink and white almond blossom.

Jalon is the capital of the Jalon Valley, and is a lively town with an interesting selection of craft shops, bodegas (wine cellars), restaurants and shops offering a wide range of services and local products. Jalon is very well known for its local wines, which you can sample in the bodegas. In the old square is a fountain, around which an open market is held every Tuesday morning. From the square you can see the famous church with its stunning blue dome. Every Saturday a large flea market is held adjacent to the river, specializing in antique furniture and collectables.

The area has some of the best scenery in the whole of Spain. Magnificent mountains surround the plains of olive trees, orange groves, vineyards and almonds, and peppered throughout the valley are unspoilt villages including Alcalali, Lliber and Parcent. This is a walker's paradise, with walks ranging from a gentle stroll to a six hour trek around the Sierra Bernia mountains.
