The Moraira Geological Route: the first route in the province of Alicante that reveals the geology of the municipality

January 17 from 2025 - 17: 25

El Municipality of Teulada presenta la Ruta Geológica de Moraira, una iniciativa fruto de la colaboración con la Universidad de Alicante que permite a residentes y visitantes explorar la rica diversidad geológica y natural de Teulada Moraira. Este proyecto, desarrollado en colaboración con la Universidad de Alicante, ofrece una experiencia educativa y recreativa única que, a día de hoy, no existe en cualquier otro municipio de la provincia de Alicante.

The main objective of the project is to promote the geological heritage of the area, promoting both sustainable tourism and environmental education. Through information panels and guided tours, participants can learn about emblematic geological formations and understand the natural processes that have shaped the current landscape of the municipality.

The itinerary covers several 'GeoPlaces' of interest, each with unique geological characteristics, these being the fossil dunes, the algae and vermetid reefs, the Riuet and the Senillar, the Miocene Sea, the faults and cliffs, and the landscape of the Teulada Moraira valley.

In addition, to enrich the experience, the project provides visitors with a series of multimedia resources, including explanatory videos and a gallery of images that facilitate the understanding of the geological phenomena in each 'geo-place'. These materials are accessible through the official website www.geologiamoraira.com.

The Councillor for the Environment and Beaches, Pilar Vidal, underlines the importance of this route as a tool for the dissemination of natural heritage and has announced that "on 11 May 2025, on the occasion of 'Geolodía', this group route will be carried out to discover the wealth of Teulada Moraira".

For its part, Raul Llobell, alcalde de Teulada Moraira, define la Ruta Geológica de Moraira como una «oportunidad excepcional para conectar con la historia natural de nuestro municipio, promoviendo la conservación del patrimonio geológico y fomentando una apreciación más profunda del entorno natural que nos rodea».
