Caring for the environment

We have an ambitious action plan – one that sees us adding more eco-powered vehicles to our existing fleet, reforesting the area around the new bar with native plants, telling guests how they can help us save electricity and water, and enlarging the goat pen to improve our livestock management approach. These are just some of the goals we want to achieve by 2020 here at the El Cabrito Finca Hotel – and they are part of our binding cooperation agreement with the Garajonay National Park.

For the past seven years or so, we have used activities like those listed above to demonstrate how tourism and environment protection can work hand in hand. In close collaboration with the national park, we agree clearly-defined goals that set out the environment protection activities we want to introduce on the finca and in the hotel. At a meeting held just recently (photo), we agreed a whole catalogue of measures that we must implement in the course of the next two years.
