The ramblers association said it objects to any buildings higher than those allowed by existing planning restrictions on the ridge overlying Mistra and Xemxija.
This is because tall buildings on a high place such as the ridge will only serve to exaggerate the negative impact on the surrounding countryside and marine landscapes, the association said.
The association said it is not prepared to accept further compromises of the landscape at Mistra Bay, or in the surrounding area, that would in any way degrade the environment.
It is clear that the proposed development consisting of a high rise complex on Xemxija ridge falls within this category, it added.
