Just a few hours after being officially opened, the Ecologists in Action organization issued a news release hard values, negatively, the new path Abarán ecotourism in the section 'Cañada Damian Soto Hidalgo.
Greenpeace calls the new infrastructure as "unnecessary" complaint "is not invested in restoring the garden and the historical-cultural heritage" and recalled that the area "is still not explicitly protected in the General Plan Municipal Planning '.
These criticisms are directed in the first place, environmental impact, since, according to the ecological association "is buried with gravel road and public road was a natural ground of soil, perfectly practicable.
To this we must add the facility in excess of hundreds of meters of wooden rails safe places for the traveler, unless they are justified in some stretches, such as those located in the channel Hydroelectric Nicholas '.
The press release states that one of the actions to report is "unnecessary placement of a sobreseñalización: 17 signs indicating a very short stretch of road (1.5 km - 15 min.) What needs to include the high number of banks (8) and paper (6), which transform the landscape of traditional vegetable garden in a kind of urban and lash out against the landscape of this rural area. "
Another aspect that is not according to the environmental organization is what they call excessive cost of the work.
"The € 73,258 (more than 12 million pesetas) are a great waste of public money, taking into account the current economic situation, it would have to add further maintenance required by this excess infrastructure."
"Also, it should be stressed," continues the statement, the big mistakes that contain the markers, taking into account the high cost of this work.
As an example, confuse the remains of the existing wells in the area with 'water-mills', and typographical errors, referred to as 'head of the Cobertera' as 'Coverage'. "
For Ecologists in Action, this book is "unreasonable and unnecessary for the enjoyment of a trail in the wild-rural as well as anti-ecological and anti-tourism, which contrasts with the nominative of 'ecotourism' itinerary.
But even more, when the City Council Abarán (with Department of Environment and Culture), and the Autonomous Community (with its Directorates General of Tourism and Culture), have not been able to invest a euro in the recovery of systems traditional construction, cultivation and irrigation, which is so unique landscape of the Valle de Ricote, the much-clucks from government institutions.
Nor in the restoration of historical and archaeological heritage prevailing in the area. "
The environmental organization believes that "with this type of work seeks instead" take the picture, "while the newly urbanized environment is degraded by the abandonment of farming and the various infrastructures, since the Administration has installed in recent years in the area, such as the Wastewater Treatment Plant Cañada de Hidalgo or the nearby reservoir.
And as unfortunate as the culmination of activities in the beautiful scenery of Corona, denouncing the neglect suffered by the important archaeological site of the Hillock of the overburden, the only fortified barn preserved in al-Andalus, that with less money, had become a claim authentic cultural, educational and tourism. "
Finally, Ecologists in Action sets to the various administrations' to stop pretty pictures, because what is really needed is the revival of the garden, as a strategic area of safe food production and quality, promoting ecologically, it would be very beneficial to all, as it would improve the quality of life of our people, helping to preserve our history and environment.
