170 PEOPLE ENJOY WALK ON
'EL CARRASCAL'


'Veins de Parcent' were joined by walkers from Parcent, local villages, Denia and Altea on saturday. On a beautiful day 170 people including families, children and grandparents walked the perimeter of the largest PAI, 'La Repla' where it is planned to build 1496 houses. The walkers were joined by local botanist Joan Pellicer who pointed out local plants and explained the eocsystem of the sierra. Whilst enjoying the natural beauty of the mountain everyone became aware of the enormity of the area planned for building and the walk was a poignant reminder for many of why we must keep campaigning.
