Tossal de Grau

Tossal de Grau.
Here Lucus is not announced. It is measured.
If presence does not improve the territory, it has no right to remain.

Marina Baixa, Alicante. Within the municipalities of Benidorm and La Nucía. 669 m above sea level. Part of the Natura 2000 network.

Observatorium

From the summit, the view takes in the coastal arc from Benidorm to Altea, the inland valleys and the Puigcampana and Ponoig massif.
Here observation begins before presence. First, the state of the territory is measured. Then every change will be measured against what would have happened without Lucus.

Three rules

Nothing permanent. Everything done here can be removed without a trace.
Nothing heavy. Only light structures, made to fit the place.
No fire. No fires are lit at Tossal de Grau; fire risk is monitored.

What is missing

The territory is already protected: it is part of the public wildfire prevention system.
What it lacks is daily presence.

In the hills, human presence is usually the risk.
Here it will be part of prevention.

Lucus will add that presence, in support of the public system, without replacing anyone.
