Tenerife Implements Tourist Ban to Protect Anaga Rural Park’s Environment

Tenerife: The island is making some big changes. President Rosa Dávila just announced new rules to protect the environment. Starting January 1, tourist coaches can’t access Anaga Rural Park anymore. This is all about keeping the area beautiful and reducing traffic.

Dávila wants to change the old way of getting around the island. Last year, they cut down vehicle trips by 23 million! Plus, they added 7,000 more bus trips to help everyone get around.

While some people are upset about the ban, Dávila is sticking to her guns. She’s calling for a “great pact for sustainable mobility” to keep Tenerife’s nature safe and improve the experience for everyone.

She believes nothing will stop her from tackling the issues that matter to the people and the land they love. Anaga Rural Park is a peaceful spot for nature lovers, and this ban aims to keep it that way.

With summer holidays coming up, UK tourists should think ahead. They’ll need to use local buses or other options to explore the park. The island is also promoting free public transport to make travel easier and greener.
