Balearic Islands bring Sa Bastida into public ownership – a gain for Alaró and the Tramuntana

Answer

Why is Sa Bastida important for nature conservation in Mallorca?

Sa Bastida contains plant communities and habitats that are not common everywhere on the island. Public ownership gives the authorities more control over conservation and makes it easier to protect sensitive areas from damage. That is especially relevant in the Serra de Tramuntana, where landscape and biodiversity are closely linked.
