Mountain range of la Fausilla

Nature · Cartagena, Campo de Cartagena, Murcia

The Sierra de la Fausilla is a 791-hectare natural area located to the east of Cartagena, in the surroundings of the Bay of Escombreras, and it stretches parallel to the coast between the former Punta de los Aguilones and the cove of El Gorguel. It has viewpoints over the bay and port of Cartagena and has notable ecological value, for which it is designated a Special Protection Area for Birds and a Site of Community Importance within the Natura 2000 Network. Most of its territory belongs to the company Repsol, although Iberdrola and various public administrations also hold properties on the range.
