Tighter Rules for the Tramuntana: Between Protection, Penalties and Everyday Island Life

Answer

What are the new protection rules for the Serra de Tramuntana in Mallorca likely to change?

The draft law is aimed at stronger protection for the Serra de Tramuntana, especially against arson, damage to cultural heritage and reckless use of mountain tracks. It also opens the door to tougher penalties and more practical control of motorised leisure use. The aim is not only to punish serious damage, but also to reduce the everyday pressure on the landscape.
