Belleuropa Award 

The Belleuropa Award was created by leading environmental figure Giuseppe NATTA. The award is intended to recognize the value of carefully managed natural habitats and their managers’ efforts in improving the rural landscape and enhancing biodiversity. It promotes sustainable business models based around the creation of new kinds of rural tourism, the promotion of regional or traditional low-impact products, or by harnessing the environmental and historical assets of the territory. 

Each year, the Belleuropa Award honours a member of the Wildlife Estates Label Network for the exceptional work that they have undertaken in maintaining, protecting, and improving Biodiversity.

The winner of the 2025 Belleuropa Award is Ericsberg Castle, a historic estate nestled in Sweden’s Södermanland region. With roots reaching back to the 17th century, Ericsberg stands as a remarkable example of how tradition and innovation can thrive together.
