Natural Areas

In terms of the natural areas we visited, they are cultural landscapes since their preservation is dependent on cultural intervention. Cultural intervention includes annual burns, spraying herbicides, removing weeds (European flora that threaten the environment) with saws or hands, and establishing walk paths for people to walk through the area without damaging the plants.
