Main
achievements

During 2025, milestones and sub-milestones were installed in the Illescas National Reserve, allowing for the correct delimitation and signaling, which contributes to land management and facilitates surveillance and control.

A perimeter fence was installed in the Reventazón sector. This action reinforces security and improves access control.

The third edition of the Emprendedores por Naturaleza-Reserva Nacional Illescas contest was launched. Four winning enterprises were selected and have been implementing their respective projects.

This initiative is aimed at promoting the sustainable use of natural resources and landscape resources.
