How can Greenways contribute to the European Sustainable Tourism Strategy
The document presents the contribution of the European Greenways Association to the European Sustainable Tourism Strategy, highlighting greenways as key infrastructure for sustainable transport, mobility, and inclusive tourism. Greenways reuse disused infrastructure such as former railways, towpaths, and heritage routes to support ecotourism, active travel, access to nature and culture, and climate change mitigation. They provide safe, accessible, and non-motorised routes for people of all ages and abilities, with uses ranging from walking and cycling to water-based and seasonal winter activities. As green corridors, greenways enhance environmental quality, strengthen local communities, connect rural and urban areas, and foster cooperation, including across borders.
