Today, scaled-up rewilding efforts in the Southern Carpathian mountains of Romania are enriching biodiversity and delivering tangible benefits for local communities. By showcasing these efforts and amplifying engagement, the newly launched Rewilding Romania website will support this upward trajectory.

Home to some of Europe’s most spectacular nature, the Southern Carpathians of Romania have huge rewilding potential. In 2023, the Rewilding Romania team took steps to expand their efforts and impact across the landscape and beyond.

The Rewilding Romania team have signed partnership agreements with Retezat and Domogled-Valea Cernei National Parks. This will support scaled-up rewilding efforts across more than 105,000 hectares of additional land.
