Europe witnessed a dramatic increase in burned areas in 2023, with unprecedented fires in February and March. Fires were mapped in 24 of the 27 EU states (all except Luxembourg , Malta , and Slovakia ). In Greece , at least 28 people lost their lives, and several holiday resorts on the island of Rhodes had to be evacuated by sea.

Data for the first quarter of 2024 indicate that the number of fires is expected to double this year. This increase is largely attributed to prolonged drought periods, unusually high temperatures, and the effects of climate change. Areas traditionally not prone to fires are now increasingly affected by wildfires.

The unpredictability of wildfire speed and spread due to fluctuating winds and dryness can quickly become a life-threatening hazard. The Safeture and Riskline wildfire report offers travelers valuable tips on minimizing risks.
