Travel Tomorrow reports that Anaga Rural Park in Tenerife will begin limiting the number of daily tourists to protect its delicate ecosystem and cultural heritage. The initiative, led by councillor Carmen Peña and supported across political lines, aims to balance tourism with environmental sustainability. The park, known for its volcanic landscapes, laurel forests, and traditional villages, has seen increasing pressure from mass tourism. Measures such as restricting large coaches have already been introduced, with further infrastructure and enforcement plans underway.For more details on this initiative, please follow the attached link.
