Forest Smart Casual Hotels
Casual Hotels is promoting two ecological restoration projects, located in Spain and Portugal, that aim to recover forests and improve the resilience of the environment to erosion and climate change.
The impact information is presented in a consolidated format for the entire “Casual Forest,” reflecting the combined contribution of both projects to landscape regeneration and environmental sustainability.
Forest of Spain - Teruel
In one of the most extreme and sparsely populated regions of the Iberian Peninsula, Casual Hotels' reforestation project seeks to recover ancient forests. The juniper trees, once used to build colonial ships, have been unable to regenerate due to erosion and adverse climatic conditions. The newly planted species, adapted to these harsh conditions, are growing slowly but surely.
Forest of Portugal - Alentejo
In the heart of the Alentejo region, the Forest of Portugal project seeks to recover land degraded by years of overgrazing and eucalyptus plantations. These intensive uses depleted the soil and reduced its capacity to regenerate naturally. By reforesting with native species such as holm oaks, cork oaks, stone pines, and strawberry trees, the project aims to restore biodiversity and strengthen the land's resistance to fire and erosion, returning balance and life to a landscape characteristic of southwestern Iberia.

Black pine | Guillomo | Oak | Quejigo | common cypress
226.65 kg CO2/tree/every 50 years
Capacity: 67,501 trees
It is located in one of the areas with the most extreme climates on the entire Iberian Peninsula and one of the highest rates of depopulation in all of Spain. The project aims to restore the forests of this historic area, which was once a vast forest ecosystem. The junipers that once populated this area were used as timber for the ships that sailed these waters during colonial times. The ecosystem has not been able to recover due to erosion of the exposed soil, which suffers from high temperature variations, significant rainfall gradients, and strong winds. The species we are planting here are adapted to these conditions, and they grow slowly but surely!
