Sierra De Aitana Trek Trip Notes Current as of: December 11, 2019 - 11:39 Valid for departures: From January 1, 2017 to January 1, 2021 Sierra de Aitana Trek Trip Notes Ways to Travel: Guided Group 8 Days Land only Trip Code: Destinations: Spain Min age: 16 TSA Moderate / Programs: Walking & Trekking Challenging Trip Overview Although close to the Costa Blanca, the dramatic massif of Sierra de Aitana has remained a secret from all but a few discerning visitors. We follow traditional footpaths and mule tracks, mostly along ridge lines, giving us spectacular panoramic vistas, and then descend to beautiful valleys with natural springs, fantastic limestone amphitheatres, and where castles dot distant hilltops. The rocky peaks and steep valleys which sweep down to the Mediterranean coast, benet from the privilege of a warm climate for over 300 days of the year, making it an ideal location for out-of-season walking. At a Glance 7 nights pension, all rooms en suite 5 days guided walking; 1 free day Group normally 4 to 14, plus local leader. Min age 16 yrs Altitude maximum 1558m, average 1100m Some rocky paths and steep ascents/descents Trip Highlights Enjoy stunning views over the sparkling Mediterranean Follow traditional footpaths through rugged mountain landscapes Make the most of the 300 days of sunshine found here on a late getaway Gain cultural insight from our local Spanish guide Unique cultural activity on each departure (see Is This Trip for You? for more information) Is This Trip for You? This trip is Activity Level 4 (Moderate/Challenging) You should be condent in your physical condition and ability to deal with heights and difcult underfoot terrain. The walking routes are all fairly long (around 15-20km a day) and vary in duration from 7 to 8.5 hours per day (including stops). The trek is more on the challenging side - in ve days of walking we climb three summits, Serrella (1,361m), Puig Campana (1,410m) and Aitana (1,558m) with approx. 1,000m of ascent and descent on each of these days. The majority of the paths we follow are footpaths and mule tracks. Some sections are with a gentle gradient, while other sections follow quite steep rocky paths (sometimes with scree slopes) and there are some sustained ascents/descents. We also trek some cross-country terrain. This trip is for anyone condent in their health and tness. It is not recommended as a beginner's trek. It is suited for those who regularly hill walk and have put in some physical preparation beforehand. Sierra de Aitana is very rich in ora and fauna and along the walks we will see a great variety of birds and owers. Castles dot distant hilltops, and we visit springs and snow wells as well as having plenty of time to soak up village life. In the evenings the hosts of our characterful family-run village pension will make us feel right at home.

  • Por Levante – Villajoyosa”
    126 SARRIÀ Revista d´investigació i assaig de la Marina Baixa Recordant Llorente i el seu “Por Levante – Villajoyosa” Francisco MARTÍNEZ ZARAGOZA SARRIÀ Recordant Llorente i el seu “Por Levante – Villajoyosa” 127 En la transcripció que estem fent de l’obra Historia de Villajoyosa de D. Ignacio Martí i Miquel (Vilajoiosa 1848 – Barcelona 1928), famós jurista viler que va estar destinat per distintes parts d’Espanya, ens hem trobat amb uns articles que li dedicà al nostre poble l’insigne historiador, il·lustre poeta, glòria de les lletres i polític destacat, D. Teodor Llorente Olivares (Valencia 1836 – 1911), amb motiu d’una visita que li va fer l’any 1904. Foren publicats els dies 24 i 31 d’octubre i el 7 de novembre del dit any en el periòdic de València Las Provincias, amb el pseudònim de “Valentino”. El 1845, una reforma de l’ensenyament que reordenava els estudis de filosofia li va proporcionar l’ocasió de començar el batxillerat als nou anys. D. Vicente Boix fou un dels seus primers mestres, junt amb Pascual Pérez (escolapi exclaustrat) i Aparisi i Guijarro, qui li obrí les portes de El Pensamiento de Valencia, en què començà a publicar. Conegué a Vicente Wenceslao Querol i foren grans amics literaris. En sonar la campana del Col·legi del Patriarca i acabada la classe, tots dos corrien a la Biblioteca Universitària, on reinava com a pontífex literari el poeta mallorquí Marià Aguiló, que diu d’ells que “separant-se del bullanguer estol des seus companys, pujaven corrent l’escala de la Biblioteca, com si els mancara el temps; entraven i sens’aturar-se en les taules dels lectors, penetraven resolts en lo departamento reservat, on se guarden les joies bibliográfiques” [referència en Puche].

  • Saharan Dust Events Over the Valencian Community (Eastern Iberian Peninsula): Synoptic Circulation Patterns and Contribution to PM10 Levels
    Aerosol and Air Quality Research, 20: 2519–2528, 2020 ISSN: 1680-8584 print / 2071-1409 online Publisher: Taiwan Association for Aerosol Research https://doi.org/10.4209/aaqr.2020.01.0038 Saharan Dust Events over the Valencian Community (Eastern Iberian Peninsula): Synoptic Circulation Patterns and Contribution to PM10 Levels Ariadna Huerta-Viso, Javier Crespo, Nuria Galindo, Eduardo Yubero, Jose Francisco Nicolás* Atmospheric Pollution Laboratory (LCA), Department of Applied Physics, Miguel Hernández University, Avenida de la Universidad S/N, 03202 Elche, Spain ABSTRACT This study assessed Saharan dust events (SDE) passing over the Valencian Community (VC; eastern Spain) during the period of 2014–2017 by investigating the following topics: a) the occurrence of SDE and their impact on PM10 mass concentrations, b) the identification of the favorable synoptic patterns at 850 hPa associated with SDE via cluster analysis and c) the applicability of the gamma probability density function (PDF) in fitting the mass contributions of SDE. We determined that these events affect the VC on ~26% of the days of the year, thereby contributing 3.3 µg m–3 (~23%) to the average PM10 concentration. Five circulation scenarios were identified. In Scenario 1 (17.4%), the transport of Saharan dust was due to the combination of a trough situated over the southwest of the Iberian Peninsula and a high-pressure system centered on western Algeria, Tunisia and eastern Libya. According to the PDF analysis, SDE characterized by this type of pattern were the most likely to substantially increase PM10 mass concentrations. In Scenarios 3 (39.2%) and 5 (19.4%), which contributed to high concentrations of mineral dust in the VC, a high-pressure system was located over North Africa.

GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES IN A UNIQUE FLORA ENDANGERED PLANT COMMUNITIES IN THE VALENCIA REGION EMILI LAGUNA AND PEDRO PABLO FERRER GALLEGO The expected effects of global environmental change over the coming decades may worsen the situation for many currently endangered Valencian plants, even leading to the localised extinction of some species which have no replacement habitats. This paper analyses four cases of affected environments: coastal systems, wetlands, sub-Mediterranean shade forests, and high mountain vegetation. Keywords: climate change, endangered species, endemic plants, Valencia, extinction. Mediterranean climate areas on our planet are of climate change and other influences derived from considered to be especially sensitive to the effects of damage to the environment and to the ecosystem climate change.

Muelle en ses Illetes, Formentera Formentera with Ibiza at the back Part of our business success is due to the sailing weather in the area - highly valued by the organizers of the America's Cup and the Volvo Ocean Race, along with the excellent microclimate enjoyed by the Alicante area, with an average of 300 sunny days per year. From May to October, we enjoy easterly winds, which make for very pleasant cruises. They are tempered winds, since they come from the sea.
