The cliffs described here generally face south-ish, so are a good bet on clear calm winter days. They can be cold if the weather is grey or windy, and they will be hot in the summer despite being at an altitude of around 600m. The rock isn't the quality of Sella or Toix, and some of it is very sharp. Despite this, there is plenty of good sport hereabouts, and it is another venue to add into the mix.
in 2023 many belays have been replaced and improved, and some new bolts added along with some great new routes of grade 4 and 5 in the Jabali sector.
Rockfax helped with the funding for this.
From the coast, follow the CV-70 past Polop all the way to Guadalest (20km). Turn left and continue (still on the CV-70) for another 6.5 km to a right turn to Abdet. Drive down over the river. 700 metres from the main road a concrete track branches off left - this is the approach to the crag (the no entry sign is for vehicles). 100m further round the bend beyond this junction towards Abdet is parking on the right-hand side of the road with room for few cars.
