A sustainable excursion

The Las Terrazas complex is the perfect example of sustainable rural development. This area is located in the Sierra del Rosario and suffered greatly the loss of its flora and fauna due to the exploitation of the copper mines found there.

For this reason, it has been part of an active reforestation campaign that seeks to keep the area as intact as possible and rescue natural species of the island, all part of a UNESCO program for the protection of Biosphere reserves.
