In April 2026, the park hosted a campaign to support wild animals. 200 kg of salt was delivered to the Syltran Gorge for wild ungulates. Salt is a vital element in their diet; approximately 60% of the salt consumed is used to form bone tissue and antlers.
Also in April 2026, the park hosted events as part of the international "March for Parks 2026" campaign. This campaign aims to unite people around the idea of supporting and preserving specially protected natural areas.
