Today is a special day for us.
In the press today, specifically in La Voz de Galicia, it appears that we emphasize this press release:



La Voz de Galicia


The Xunta include Monteferro and Costa da Vela in the national park

  • In addition to coastal areas included in the Natura 2000 network, the goal also is to integrate the islands Estelas
  • Medio Ambiente iniciará los trámites cuando asuma la gestión de las Islas Atlánticas el día 1 de Julio

Within the prudence with which we must always collect this information, we believe that this is an excellent news.

Monteferro include in the Parque de las Islas Atlanta is an old dream that can now be realized by giving finally to mount a figure of protection that in this case would be the highest ranking possible.

In the afternoon yesterday we received the call from John Hermida, Concelleiro Environment Nigrán, namely to make us hopeful these statements by the director general of Nature Conservation, Xosé Benito Reza.

We appreciate the detail and also welcome our proposal to provide Monteferro a protective figure was compiled by the Council of Nigrán, which initially asked the General Directorate for Nature Conservation cataloguing the entire mountain in the picture Paisaxe Protex.

El trabajo de este colectivo supuso un impulso para conseguir este fin. Por eso queremos enviaros a todas y todos, compañeras y compañeros, un fuerte abrazo y muchas felicitaciones.
