Environmental Project
Commitment to the conservation of our natural sites
Our environmental commitment
Within the framework of the Aitana Tour cycling march, we have promoted an environmental project with the aim of preserving and improving two emblematic natural sites frequently visited by cyclists as rest areas:
Font de Toni
Confrides, Alicante
Font de l'Arbre
Confrides, Alicante
This initiative seeks not only to clean and recover these spaces, but also to raise awareness among athletes and visitors about the importance of keeping them free of waste, thus protecting their ecological and landscape value.
The activity is part of our commitment to sustainable sport and respect for the natural environment of the Sierra de Aitana.
Project Objectives
Collect waste
Remove plastics, cans, cigarette butts and other waste from both natural sites.
Raise awareness
Make participants aware of the importance of leaving no trace in nature.
Promote ecotourism
Encourage responsible sports practices and sustainable tourism.
With this action, Aitana Tour reinforces its commitment to the environment, ensuring that these spaces continue to be enjoyed by future generations.
