Many of the casco were classified in cultural interest in 2013. Please note: the vell or Puerta de Valencia portal, Calle Salamanca and the glorieta del maño. Four roads were marked to discover the bastion and the Renaissance style. The first, Bellaguarda, begins in the commercial area and leads to the medieval portion of Altea, formerly named when it was confined to its location at the top of the hill. The second, Baluard de la Casa de la Senyoria, which begins from the place of the convent leads to the remains of the former water mill of Bellaguarda, then to the casa de la Senyoria.

The Sierra de Bèrnia follows the coast perpendicular to Callosa from En to Sarrià and to Pointe de Toix. In its upper part, it is a sharp limestone ridge that reaches 1 129 metres above sea level. And it's south of the summit that you find the ruins of the Fort of Bèrnia, built by Philip II to contain the rebellions of the moriscos populations, converted Muslims, who then populated these mountains. The PR-V 7 route is recommended as a small hiking trail for an overview of this space classified as a protected landscape. He leaves Boxes of Bèrnia, in Xaló, follows the north slope to the forat, Trou hole, a surprising natural tunnel that crosses the ridge, to return to the south slope, passing through the Fort. This excursion offers privileged panoramic views over the bay of Altea.
