Access Issue: Permit Required Details

Note: Access to the tourist trail on Penyal D'ifach is currently restricted by permit. This trail is only descent for most routes and the approach for many. There are 300 permits given per day. You can acquire a permit here: gva.es/va/inicio/procedimie…

Permits can be procured day of assuming there are any left. There are usually no permits available day-of on the weekends so plan ahead.

According to signage the fine for violating the permit restrictions is 600-6000 euros. I assume this goes for people who come up a route like Diedra UBSA that doesn't require access to the main path but descends it. There were people at the base of the wall by 9am checking permits.

Description

The Penon is a 1000 ft. limestone plug rising out of the Mediterranean Sea on the edge of the town of Calpe. The huge white tower is home to many long sport and trad routes along with a developed path down the backside.

Getting There

walk along the beach until you reach the obvious tower.
