Samaria with a renewed Diploma for Protected Areas

2019-12-23 19:21:51

At the beginning of December, the Council of Europe decided to renew the Diploma for Protected Areas, which was granted for the area of the White Mountains and the Samaria Gorge. Protected areas can receive a diploma for outstanding scientific, cultural or aesthetic value. Currently 73 places in 29 countries can boast of this distinction. The White Mountains and the Samaria Gorge are the only protected areas in Greece that have a European diploma for protected areas. This year's renewal of this award extends its validity for another 10 years until 2029.

The positive decision upholding the award of the diploma did not come as a surprise to the authorities of the National Park Samaria, because the visit of officials sent on behalf of the Council of Europe took place in a very positive atmosphere. As part of the audit summary, five recommendations were made that should be implemented:

• Increase legislative activity towards the adoption of the presidential decree expanding the borders of the Samaria National Park, and, as a consequence, adapt the budget of this unit to allow monitoring of the protected area,
• Open side paths off the main trail for climbing, research, rescue and fire fighting. These trails should still be inaccessible to ordinary tourists entering the park,
• Implement a program to protect old olive groves located in the former village of Samaria. Stopping the expansion of pines growing in the park in these areas,
• Maintaining the current state of flora and fauna, as well as avoiding the construction of new roads in the park and surrounding areas,
• Increasing access to the National Park for people with reduced mobility. Improvement of the southern 2.5 km section of the trail from the entrance to the Iron Gate.
