Silla is about 15 km from Valencia and makes a sensible first stop if you don't want to push all the way to Algemesí (38 km). The town has basic services — a few bars and restaurants, a supermarket, and accommodation options including Pensión Puerto and Hostal Moreno near the camino.
Silla is on two Cercanías train lines (C1 and C2), so you could also take the train back to Valencia if you'd rather sleep in the city on your first night. There's a Moorish tower in town, though it can't be visited.
Leaving Silla, the camino follows a country road through flat agricultural land to Almussafes. The profile is flat all the way to Algemesí. After Benifaió, it's farmland again — rice paddies, orange groves, and the open sky of the Valencian plain.
