🥇 Sandane - the heart of Nordfjord, Norway [PL|EN] by @stafhalr

I am currently on a business trip in the Vestlandet region, working on adding successive segments to the body of the beast that Saint John wrote about (can anyone guess what I mean?). We have been accommodated in the village of Sandane, and this post is dedicated to it. This weekend, I spent my free time strolling around the village far and wide and reading up a bit about it.

🥈 RUGGED COASTLINE OF ASTURIAS by @ladytruckview

Playa de Xagó and the surrounding cliffs are part of a rugged coastal system formed by constant Atlantic erosion. The high rocky walls you see in the photos were shaped over thousands of years by wind, salt and powerful waves. The coastline here is not tropical or gentle. It is raw, exposed and constantly changing. This area is also protected due to its dune systems and coastal ecosystems. The grass-covered hills and sandy stretches create a natural buffer between land and sea, making it an important habitat for birds and native plant species.

🥉 Mountain Zebra National Park: Where Conservation Rewrote History - [ 🇬🇧 - 🇫🇷 - 🇪🇸 ] by @terresco

Nestled near Cradock in the Eastern Cape province, the Mountain Zebra National Park was born out of urgency. Established in 1937, its mission was to save the Cape mountain zebra, then on the brink of extinction with fewer than fifty individuals recorded. At the time, hunting and competition with livestock had nearly wiped out the species. The park, set across the semi arid landscapes of the Karoo and the foothills of the Camdeboo Mountains, became a sanctuary. Today, it protects not only endangered species but also a unique ecosystem of wind swept plateaus, deep valleys and high altitude grasslands.
