The best views from Altafulla to Tarragona. High but worth it. Very technical descent from the rear (double bike and telescopic seatpost or you play it)

Be careful, if you take the ramp directly from La Mora at the roundabout, you'll be pushing your bike! This is a steep hiking trail and not suitable for mountain bikers.

All the paths leading to the tower of Sant Simplici are good but a little technical on the whole ascent as on the descent. The 360° panoramic view is worth the effort.

The lower path coming from the north-east is not recommended. You have to push it up there. I then drove down the upper north-east path, which was relatively easy. But there are loose rocks, bushes, etc.

From here you can perfectly appreciate the uphill section, although there is still a quite demanding section to reach Mola.

Magnificent views of the coast of Tarragona, Creixell, Torredembarra and Altafulla. The route is ideal for walking or trail running, with stretches of track and very cool trails, the climb to the mola is quite demanding.
