Consorci Espais d’Interès Natural del Ripollès

CEINR, the Consorci per a la Protecció i Gestió dels Espais d’Interès Natural del Ripollès, is a consortium dedicated to protecting and managing natural areas in the Ripollès region of the Catalan Pyrenees. Its work focuses on landscapes of exceptional ecological variety, from high mountain habitats and forests to wetlands, riverbanks and traditional hay meadows. The consortium manages several Natura 2000 sites, including Serra de Montgrony, Serra Cavallera, Vall de Rigat, Riberes de l’Alt Ter and Rasos de Tubau, and provides information about the wider network of protected areas, including the Natural Park of the Capçaleres del Ter i del Freser.

Through its website, CEINR helps visitors discover the region’s natural heritage and encourages respectful exploration on foot or by bicycle. It also shares guidance on activities such as climbing, which is regulated to help protect threatened wildlife and plants. News and updates highlight the consortium’s conservation initiatives, partnerships and organisational activity, while its territorial information introduces the habitats, species and communities that shape the Ripollès.
