Yesterday, the Rural Agents filed four complaints for off-road driving in the area of the Tor Mountain, in Pallars Sobirà, as reported by the Alt Pirineu Natural Park. It was highlighted that this is a private property located within the natural park, where such activities cannot be carried out without permission from the property owner and the Park itself. The Rural Agents, who even deployed a helicopter, intercepted vehicles in the area, as well as people who were camping with their vehicles without the corresponding permission.
The media fame of Tor has led to a pilgrimage of visitors to this small town in the Pyrenees, as reported by SEGRE in a recent article. The presence of cars and motorcycles increases especially on weekends, and the influx of visitors has skyrocketed in recent months following the media coverage. A sign announces access to Tor Mountain and the fact that it is private property.
It is important for visitors to respect the rules and regulations in place to protect the natural beauty of the area and ensure the safety of everyone involved. Unauthorized access can lead to negative consequences for the environment and wildlife in the area, as well as pose risks to the visitors themselves.
Additionally, it is crucial for visitors to be aware of the impact of their actions on the delicate ecosystem of the Tor Mountain and to follow the guidelines set by the authorities. By obtaining the necessary permits and respecting the rules in place, visitors can enjoy the beauty of the area while preserving it for future generations to appreciate.
Authorities are working to enforce the regulations and prevent unauthorized access to the Tor Mountain to maintain its ecological balance and protect its natural resources. It is essential for all visitors to cooperate and comply with the rules to ensure the sustainability of the area for years to come. Let us all be responsible stewards of the environment and work together to preserve the beauty of Tor Mountain for future generations to enjoy.
