Calpe

Hiking up the Peñón de Ifach, the towering rock that dominates Calpe’s skyline on Spain’s Costa Blanca, gives some of the best views on the coast, and our guide to the climb is the heart of these three stories. The other two are photo tours: random shots from around the coastal city, and a closer look at its high-rises, far more playful than the usual Spanish beach-town tower block.
