An important document for the meaningful development of the Veľká Fatra National Park for the next 30 years is the result of expert analyses and discussions with representatives of non-state forest owners, local governments and the Ministry of Agriculture. The document will make it possible to use projects financed from various financial mechanisms for the real development and protection of natural resources, and will also support the coexistence of the local population with nature, where it will be possible to live decently, work and improve their property, which has been maintained by human hands by previous generations.
In addition to the natural development of forest communities, the protection of natural processes or the preservation of the favourable condition of habitats and animals, the objectives of the programme are to contribute to the improvement of conditions for species bound to watercourses, water retention in the landscape and the protection of rocks and soil.
