From our company we feel grateful and indebted to these mountains that have seen us born, therefore and to somehow return what they have given us so much, from Pletas y Camins we organize and promote various actions aimed at showing this commitment we have acquired with our environment.
From our company, we collaborate with different associations dedicated to the preservation and dissemination of the Chistabina culture, an ancient culture that is the basis of all our activities and experiences. All our activities are carried out with the utmost respect for the ecosystem that surrounds us, valuing both its natural and cultural resources and raising awareness about the care of this.
At the same time, we carry out different actions such as garbage collection campaigns in order to maintain and restore natural areas of our environment, or we give life to old roads already lost in oblivion, restoring them and investigating their past full of stories.
