Magical places to enjoy the sunrise in Xixona

Everyone knows that it is the cradle of nougat. But this town also offers other pleasures that are not gastronomic. We are talking about the charms of nature, which gives us, in this case, some places to see the sunrise in Xixona.

Enjoying this moment when we slowly move from night to day is very relaxing. Somehow, it is like disconnecting from the world around you. Your gaze is hypnotically caught in the yellow and orange colors of the sun awakening from its slumber.

You might get lucky and enjoy a good perspective of the sunrise from your window. But, let's be clear, that's a privilege of a few.

That is why we believe that, if you want to enjoy a good sunrise in Xixona, you will have to get up early and move to the right places. Which have to be, obviously, at a certain height.

Where to see the sunrise in Xixona?

From Pablo Garrigós Nougat we strongly recommend two mountains to enjoy the sunrise. As it will be very early, if you are going to go, dress warmly. Although we are in a strangely warm autumn, at that time the cold is noticeable.

Sierra de la Carrasqueta

Probably, it is the natural space most loved by xixonencs. It is there where they go up to enjoy the snow in winter. And also the most popular mountain for hiking routes.

In this case, it is also a magical place to watch the sunrise.

Penya del Migjorn

Xixona is nestled in the foothills of this mountain, also known as the Red Penya. From the top you can see the griffon vultures.

It has the advantage that you can go up directly from the village, so you don't have to take the car if you live in the municipality.

Surely during the week it will be more difficult. You can take advantage of Saturday or a holiday in December (6 and 8) to see the sunrise in Xixona. A new way to connect with nature that will make you feel better about yourself.
