Green Belt of Vitoria-Gasteiz

Protected Landscape and Seascape

The Green Belt of Vitoria-Gasteiz is a set of urban parks of high ecological value in the Spanish city of Vitoria-Gasteiz, linked by eco-recreational corridors as part of a restoration and reclamation plan on the city's outskirts begun in the early 1990s. The project was selected by the United Nations among the 100 best global performances at the Best Practices for Improving the Living Conditions of Cities competition held in Dubai in 2000, and it currently comprises five established parks: Armentia, Olarizu, Salburua, Zabalgana and Zadorra.
