All walks are at your own risk

Whilst every effort is made to ensure accuracy, the time stated for each walk will always depend on the fitness and ability of the walkers and also the conditions on the day of the walk.

Assess your ability to complete the route taking into account the following information and remembering that these mountains are very rough

Co-ordinators can end the walk at their sole discretion and may choose not to start the walk if the weather forecast is not good. In times of bad weather, please telephone the co-ordinator to check on conditions.

Arrive at the meeting place in good time. Walks depart promptly at 10:00.

The latest Michelin map "Costa Blanca" (123Zoom) at 1:130.000 (1cm=1.3km) covers most of our area as far north as Pego. Michelin map 445, "España-Levante-Valencia-Mucia" at 1:400.00 covers the whole coast but in less detail. (www.ViaMichelin.com )
