At the mouth of the Río Molinell, which forms the border between Dénia and Oliva, a small bridge spans the river. It connects the coastal paths of both towns and provides cyclists and walkers with a convenient crossing away from the main roads. From here, a wide view opens up of the estuary, where the river winds its way through reed beds and dunes to the sea. The confluence of fresh and salt water is particularly impressive, creating a diverse landscape with a rich birdlife. For cyclists, the bridge provides a convenient crossing point for continuing their tour between Dénia and Oliva or for taking a short break.
