The structure of land use and ownership rights to them in the area of the Pieniny National Park is unfavorable for conducting protection processes in accordance with the principles laid down in the Act on the Protection of Nature, because a large part of the area is a private property. For many years the Park has been carrying out the buyout of the property rights to the Treasury, but often the owners lack the desire to resell the land and also the lack of financial resources slows down the process. During the seven years Park has purchased 366 cadastral plots with a total area of 39.7669 ha.
