ALICANTE – SANTA BARBARA CASTLE TOUR – SPAIN TRAVEL GUIDE

Castle of Santa Barbara On the top of Mount Benacantil at a height of 166 metres, there is one of the largest medieval fortresses in Spain, built in the ninth century by Muslims.

An amazing view of town and harbour.

If you feel fit, the walk from Plaza de Carmen is a sight in itself, through some narrow winding streets.

If not, there is an elevator in the core of Mount Benacantil itself. The castle can also be reached by a car, but parking slots are scarce.
