Zonas restringidas a drones en Europa

Three layers to check

Never rely on “empty sky” — always open the official map first.

• National UTM / geo-zone map (mandatory)
• NOTAM temporary restrictions
• Local bylaws for parks and events

Airports and CTR

Control zones (CTR) around airports are strict no-fly areas without ATC coordination. Buffer distances vary by country.

Military and border areas

Military installations, border strips and critical infrastructure appear as permanent or dynamic restrictions on UTM layers.

Nature reserves

National parks are not always banned, but many require written permission. Seasonal wildlife buffers may apply.

Urban flying

Open category limits still apply: 120 m, distance from people, and local geo-zones. Some cities add extra rules.
