Best Practices promoting the:
i) reuse and valorisation of heritage transport infrastructure, namely disused railways, to promote innovative and sustainable forms of tourism, for instance slow tourism (e.g. cycle tourism); ii) deployment of new non-motorised infrastructures, and the upgrade of the existing ones for cycling and walking; iii) connectivity improvement between the non-motorised routes (as greenways and cycle routes) and the main attractions nearby (natural as e.g. N2000, cultural and natural UNESCO sites and other heritage assets), small villages and surrounding areas; iv) connectivity Improvement with public transports to facilitate intermodality, removing obstacles to favour cycle routes, their services and attractions, for tourists and local people; v) combined travel (bicycle + train /boat /buses).
