Castellet de l'Ocaive

Castellet de l'Ocaive rises dramatically from the Serra del Castellet de la Solana near Pedreguer in Alicante, designated as an Asset of Cultural Interest. While archaeological evidence documents Bronze Age occupation of the rocky site, the visible medieval structures date to the 13th-14th centuries, including a quadrangular tower with at least one upper floor and a steep buttress on the cliff face. The castle can be accessed via the scenic PR-CV 53 hiking path, offering visitors a secluded setting with impressive views of the surrounding mountain landscape. This fortress represents an important piece of Alicante's medieval defense network, with its strategic position providing both panoramic vistas and insights into centuries of regional military history.
