What we love about Gilet:
Built on the north edge of the mountains with a typical Spanish town center, it has easy access to hiking in the Sierra Calderona mountains, a an avid bicycling town and good transportation to Valencia and Sagunto. All of this and more have led to spectacular population growth in recent years and significant urban development. It’s easy to see why the population has tripled in size since 2000. There are many lovely houses in the hills that have gorgeous views of the Sierra Calderona and the town has smaller townhomes and apartments.
It is a wonderful suburb for families too, with a new skate park, public swimming pool, easy access to public transportation and many festivities throughout the year. The public library is housed in the historic The Gilet Tower which dates back to 1580.
As with the other mountain towns it offers an abundance of biking opportunities, whether you are a road or off-road bicyclist.
