Sustainability Policy

Respect for Nature and the Environment

Our Mission

The mission of Euronature is to contribute to a sustainable society and sustainable tourism. The goal of Euronature's policy is to minimize the negative environmental, socio-cultural, and economic impacts of our products and business processes. We aim to create greater awareness among our employees and encourage responsible travel behavior on-site.

Respect for Nature and the Environment

By nature (or lifestyle), naturists focus on respect for others, the environment, and the surroundings where they recreate. This makes the atmosphere at naturist destinations particularly pleasant: people greet each other, dispose of their waste properly to keep the area clean, treat each other, others' belongings, and nature with respect, and sometimes keep an eye out for one another without explicit requests.

Naturism is a lifestyle in harmony with nature. It is characterized by communal nudity aimed at promoting self-respect, respect for others, and care for the environment.

Many campsites and resorts that Euronature collaborates with are committed to sustainability, ecological responsibility, and socially responsible tourism. They implement environmental policies, socially responsible approaches, intelligent waste management (source reduction, collection, and recycling), control energy and water consumption, source responsibly (particularly for food and maintenance), and foster guest awareness actively.

Our Approach

In 2012, we passed the Travelife exam, meeting the requirements of the ANVR Sustainable Tourism Policy (ANVR-DTO). Since 2016, Euronature has participated in the ANVR's Better Holidays Program. We have successfully completed Travelife exams, including Carbon Management, to raise traveler awareness of reducing their CO₂ footprint during holidays. On June 28, 2021, we were officially certified as a Travelife Partner. Euronature meets over 100 criteria set by sustainability standards. Travelife is the leading international sustainability certification in the travel sector, established with support from the European Commission. Through our participation, we demonstrate our commitment to sustainable and socially responsible business practices.

What We Do in the Office

We naturally focus on separating and reducing waste. We critically evaluate the purchase of sustainable office supplies or environmentally friendly alternatives. Additionally, we aim to raise awareness among our employees and actively involve them in sustainability efforts within our office. Reusing materials is strongly encouraged, as is reducing paper usage.

What You Can Do

Sustainable tourism aims to combine travel with the preservation of natural and cultural ecosystems. Everyone impacts the environment through their actions, but if we act responsibly, we can minimize our impact on nature. Traveling, discovering other cultures, and admiring beautiful areas will remain accessible not only for you but also for future generations. Here’s what you can do during your holiday:

• Support the local economy by booking excursions locally or dining at local restaurants.
• Purchase local products and responsibly made souvenirs.
• Use public transport when visiting a city.
• If driving, travel on less busy days to minimize CO₂ emissions.
• Cycle or walk at your destination instead of relying on a car for everything.
• Be mindful of water and electricity usage.
• Opt for rechargeable batteries and solar chargers.
• Choose alternative travel days when possible instead of Saturday.
• Stay on walking paths to avoid damaging flora.
• Bring a reusable water bottle.
