Mountain range of Serrella (vertiente de Fageca)

Nature · Fageca, El Comtat, Alicante

The path that climbs to the sierra of Serrella from Fageca runs along a mountain range that stretches 15 kilometres from southwest to northeast between the municipalities of Benasau, Quatretondeta, Fageca, Famorca, Castell de Castells, Confrides and l'Abdet, in the El Comtat comarca, and culminates at Pla de la Casa, at 1,387 metres. Holm oak woods, pine forests, ash trees and yews grow on its slopes, and it holds the only known wild holly specimen in the whole province of Alicante. Birds of prey nest on the rocky crags, and common fauna include nightingales, partridges, thrushes, carrion crows, rabbits, foxes, wild boar, badgers and weasels.
