Prince Mohammad Bin Salman Royal Reserve

The Prince Mohammad bin Salman Royal Reserve (PMBSRR) is a 24,500 km2 protected area located in the northwestern region of Saudi Arabia. Spanning across portions of the Tabuk Province and the Medina Province, the reserve covers approximately 1% of the Kingdom's terrestrial landmass and 1.8% of its territorial waters. It encompasses 15 distinct ecosystems that transition from the high Hejaz Mountains down to the coastal shores of the Red Sea. The reserve was established by a royal decree in June 2018 to preserve regional biodiversity, combat environmental degradation and overgrazing, and pioneer ecological restoration under the Saudi Vision 2030 framework. It is managed with financial and administrative autonomy by a dedicated development authority overseen by the Council of Royal Reserves.
