Mountain range of el Buixcarró

Nature · Barx, La Safor, Valencia

Mountain massif located between the comarques of Vall d'Albaida, La Safor and La Costera, at whose edge lies the municipality of Barx; crossed by the PR-CV60 route as far as La Drova, within the comarca of La Safor. Its highest point is the peak of l'Aldaia, at 755 metres, followed by Picaio (697 m) and l'Alt de l'Hedra (672 m). The sierra lies at the confluence of the Baetic and Iberian systems, which has produced numerous karst faults, and contains high-quality, pink-coloured marble that has been quarried since Roman times. Besides Barx, the massif is surrounded by the municipalities of Pinet and Quatretonda, in the Vall d'Albaida, Barxeta, in La Costera, and the hamlet of Marxuquera.
