Prince William visits Dartmoor as the Duchy of Cornwall unveils an ambitious 20-year environmental strategy
Prince William visited Dartmoor on Thursday as the Duchy of Cornwall unveiled an ambitious 20-year environmental strategy for the moorland.
Future king William was in high spirits as he toured Tor Royal Bog, where extensive peatland restoration work is underway. The comprehensive landscape vision represents one of Britain’s largest conservation projects of its kind.
The Prince and Princess of Wales shared the stunning photos on their Instagram Story.
The initiative, which aims to revitalise Dartmoor’s wilderness whilst building resilience against climate change impacts, brings together numerous partners to develop innovative approaches to land management.
The collaboration proposes new methods for grazing practices, biodiversity conservation and hydrological restoration across the Duchy’s Dartmoor estate.
William also met emergency responders who recently battled a wildfire on North Moor. He thanked representatives from the local Fire Service, Dartmoor National Park Authority Rangers and the Commoners Council for their efforts in tackling the blaze.
