A fast and varied course

Swim (1.9 km)

Bike (90 km / 800 m elevation gain)

A single loop that leaves the port, crosses the Sierra Calderona and returns to central València. Mixed terrain: the first 30 km are flat and ideal for «flying», followed by a central section with two gentle climbs and a favorable return to the coast.:contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=0}
