Carrascal de la Font Roja Natural Park, Natural park in Alicante province, Spain.

Located in the Alicante mountains, Font Roja Natural Park extends across 2,298 hectares of Mediterranean forest with limestone formations and diverse ecosystems.

The Generalitat Valenciana designated Font Roja as a protected natural park in April 1987, preserving its Mediterranean forests and mountain landscapes.

Traditional snow wells throughout the park reflect the historical ice trade that led to the development of ice cream production in nearby Ibi.

During autumn weekends, visitors must use the municipal bus service from Alcoy due to parking restrictions, with only 55 spaces available by reservation.

The north-facing slopes contain deciduous forests with maple and ash trees, creating a microclimate distinct from typical Mediterranean vegetation.
