GO IN NATURE

Substantial part of programme area are nature protected areas and natural values – in a form of a nature parks, national parks, etc. Parks are protecting rich biodiversity of relatively small areas and could therefore offer excellent possibility for unique experience of the nature. Short distances between the areas are important for sustainable mobility between the areas for visitors – by foot, by bike or by train or other public transport forms. Many of those areas are well connected with existing cycling or hiking trails. It is important that infrastructure in those nature protected areas follows the nature friendly lead and is therefore ecologically acceptable and sustainable. Infrastructure should offer best practices of sustainable living in nature protected areas. Accommodations has to offer pristine connections to nature, and that could best offer camps with adjusted accommodations. In the region and in protected areas of the region in Slovenia and in Hungary is lack of such adjusted accommodations. We believe that the unique experience of the nature and pristine natural values will influence the conception and understanding of the nature and importance of the preservation of biodiversity in natural habitats. With the project, we will establish a network of nature friendly tourist infrastructure in protected areas of the nature in programme area in a form of eco camps and additional infrastructure that could assure unique experience of the nature and biodiversity in those areas. That will attract visitors that seek this pristine experience of the nature in its unique presence. It is important to have different packages for each target group of visitors. With the project, we would offer those visitors unique experience of the nature in the region in a new, innovative way.
