Tierra Austral signs a commitment to establish a Derecho Real de Conservación in an area next to the San Juan de Piche Nature Sanctuary.

San Juan de Piche is in the heart of the Cordón de Cantillana, a priority site for the conservation of Chile’s biodiversity. With an area of 1,617 hectares, this place has unique ecological attributes due to the variety of its ecosystems, the diversity and endemism of its flora and fauna. Thus, the Robles de Cantillana Corporation -entity in charge of the administration of the Sanctuary- together with Tierra Austral, undertook to establish a Derecho Real de Conservación to protect in perpetuity more than 100 hectares in the area of access to the Sanctuary, creating a new private protected area in the Cordón de Cantillana that will contribute to reduce the risk of affectation of the protected habitat in San Juan de Piche.
