El Montgo is like a giant watching over Denia on one side and Javea on its other side. The inhabitants of Denia are proud of their mountain as the highest mountain of Spain so closely situated to the sea.

The Montgo mount in Denia was declared as a Natural Park in 1987 in acknowledgment to its landscape, flora and fauna values. The Montgo Natural Park rises 753 metres above sea level and shelters over 600 vegetable species including the kermes oak, the red lavender, maritime fennel, the Valencia rock violet, the rock scabious, the black sabine or the palmetto.

As far as fauna is concerned, birds can be also watched in the Montgo, as the yellow legged seagull or the Audouin seagull, several crows, ravens and birds of prey (the partridge eagle, a couple of royal owls, popular kestrel ad the pilgrim falcon), reptiles, amphibians and mammals such as the dormouse, rabbit, badger, genet, etc

It's worth going through the Short Distance Trails (PR V 152) or the green route. All these routes have been signposted and range from low to medium difficulty. Discover caves such as the Cova de l’Aigua (Water Cave) or the Cova del Camell (Camel Cave), where you’ll be impressed by the views, feel nature around you, with the sea behind.
