Naturally Pacific protects Canadian wilderness
For the preservation of the most species-rich forests
Since 2024, Naturally Pacific Resort has been working with the Wilderness International Foundation on a mission to protect endangered wilderness areas in Canada. With the Naturally Pacific Forest in the untouched forests on Canada's west coast, valuable primary forest and with it the habitat for a huge variety of species is now being protected and a stable climate promoted.

The Naturally Pacific Resort is a recreational resort that offers its guests relaxation in harmony with nature, focusing on ecological responsibility and a sustainable vacation experience. Beyond hotel operations, the resort is actively committed to the preservation of wild habitats and works closely with Wilderness International in Canada to protect endangered ecosystems.
Impressions from the rainforest
The rainforest area protected by Naturally Pacific Resort is located in the vast Porcher Islands on the west coast of Canada. There, the gigantic, centuries-old trees store up to three times more carbon per hectare than tropical rainforests and provide one of the last refuges for rare species such as the coastal wolf and the majestic bald eagle.

Canada is home to around 25% of the world's peatlands – gigantic carbon reservoirs that are more important for our climate than almost any other ecosystem.

With a wingspan of up to 2.30 meters and nests that can weigh tons, bald eagles are a living symbol of preserved wilderness.

The temperate rainforests on Canada's Pacific coast are a rare habitat: they cover less than 1% of the Earth's surface, but are among the most carbon- and biomass-rich forests in the world.

The majestic humpback whales migrate off the coasts of our protected rainforests.

Ferns are the green architects of the Canadian rainforest and give it its primeval atmosphere.
Transparency
Why old-growth forest protection with WI?
What convinced Naturally Pacific about Wilderness International was above all the transparent and concrete use of donations: a €1 donation protects 1m² old-growth forest forever. Donors receive a certificate with the geocoordinates and an aerial photo of the protected forest area, as well as a tax-deductible donation receipt.
You too can protect a piece of Naturally Pacific forest
Let's continue on this path together and preserve even more unique wilderness in the long term:

About Wilderness International
The foundation, which is based in Peru, Canada and Germany, purchases legally secure wilderness areas and protects them for the future. The purchases are refinanced through donations, which ensure the long-term protection of the areas, supports environmental education projects, and research into CO2 storage and biodiversity.
Wilderness International purchases primary rainforest areas with land title and legally protects them for all future. Donations refinance the purchases and at the same time finance long-term protection as well as environmental education and research. Donors receive a personalized certificate with the exact geo-coordinates and aerial photograph of the forest area they are protecting. Thus, the use and impact of the donation is tangible and directly traceable. We are currently working in the temperate rainforest of Western Canada and the Amazon rainforest of Peru, where we are protecting ancient primary rainforests.
It is important to protect the rainforest because this is the only way we can stop species extinction and climate change. They are home to the world's greatest biodiversity and store huge amounts of CO2. It is also important to protect rainforests because they are the basis of our existence: they provide us with clean air, clean water and stable rainfall. They also cool the environment.
In Canada, good legal security helps us, as well as the legal situations and sanctions that even prohibit trespassing.
In Peru, we have additionally started a forest guardian program with local people. To ensure long-term protection, we also have several other measures in place. In general, we visit the areas on regular expeditions to check on them. We also work with local partners who inform us of any irregularities if necessary. The donations per square meter also already include the costs for property taxes.
Like no other, the legal form of the foundation allows a (charitable) purpose to be realized permanently and independently of outside interests, thus achieving the desired effects in the long term. It is thus the most long-term organizational construct currently known. Not even states, companies or national parks are designed for such a long term. This makes the foundation the only one that is oriented toward the lifespan of the ecosystems we protect.
