Walk around Dénia, do as you please!
The Montgó Natural Park was declared as such in 1987 in acknowledgement to its landscape, flora and fauna values.
The Natural Park rises 753 metres above sea level and shelters over 600 vegetable species. Amongst these we must point out the kermes oak, the red lavender, maritime fennel, the Valencia rock violet, the rock scabious, the black sabine or the palmetto.
As far as fauna is concerned, you can watch birds as the yellow legged seagull or the Audouin seagull, several crows, ravens and birds of prey (the partridge eagle, a couple of royal owls, popular kestrel ad the pilgrim falcon), reptiles, amphibians and mammals such as the dormouse, rabbit, badger, genet, etc
Go through the Short Distance Trails (PR V 152) or the green route. All these routes have been signposted and range from low to medium difficulty.
Discover caves such as the Cova de l’Aigua (Water Cave) or the Cova del Camell (Camel Cave), where you’ll be impressed by the views, feel nature around you, with the sea behind. |
