Two more Catalan natural parks join the European Charter for Sustainable Tourism

The natural parks of Montsant (Tarragona) and Montgrí, les Illes Medes i el Baix Ter (Girona) have joined the European Charter for Sustainable Tourism (ECST). The EUROPARC Federation has validated both parks and has also renewed the certificate for Zona Volcànica de la Garrotxa Natural Park, Spain’s first in obtaining it. In the case of Montsant Natural Park, the ECST not only has awarded the certification for the protected area as such, but for the whole of Priorat county.

Three more Catalan natural parks, Delta de l’Ebre, Sant Llorenç del Munt i l’Obac and Montseny, already have this European certificate. The EUROPARC distinction certifies that tourism in these areas is developed in a sustainable way according to the Charter goals.
