| Σχόλιο για τις αξίες | The National Park of Parnitha is a very interesting region regarding biodiversity, suitable to function as a shelter for the protection and conservation of the flora and fauna of southern Greece. Moreover, it has already been designated an a Special Protection Area (SPA) for birds. This is an important area for species associated with conifer forest species and upland scrub. Species of concern include: Emberiza caesia The flora of mount Parnitha is one of the richest in Greece. There have been recorded hundreds of plant species, many of which are endemic or threatened by extinction. It also hosts a variety of animal species, vertebrates and invertebrates, many of them legaly protected at national and international level. In addition, it is the only area in southern Greece where the red Deer (Cervus elaphus) survives.The proximity of the site to the city of Athens in combination to its great ecological and aesthetic value contribute to its significance as an area which has to be studied and protected. |

| Τρωτότητα | The main threats within and around the site have been described in section 6.1. However it must be mentioned that these impacts are mainly modifications caused by human activities. The more important threat within the site is the heavy human pressure (building, recreational development and establishment of new tourist shelters) mainly due to the proximity to the urban centre of Athens. The increasing tourism activity is the main threat to the rare flora. The proximity to many residential areas implies the threat of man induced fires. Within the area of the site there is also a limited illegal hunting. With regard to fires, extensive fires have taken place in June 2007, and have destroyed 3.6338 hectares of the National Park of Parnitha, out of which around 1.600 belong to the core area of absolute protection of the park, whereas, around 2.000 hectares belong to the peripheral zone. The total burnt area of forest with fir comes up to around 2.180 hectares, out of which 1.347 belong to the core area of absolute protection of the park. With regard to the Pinus halepensis forest, around 1.056 hectares have been burnt. The surface area of the evergreen broadleaves that has been burnt comes to around 400 hectares. |
