Funded by Interreg II Karelia 1996-1999

Objective of the project

The objective of the project was to create a cross-border tourism body that exploit the opportunities in the field of wildlife, nature and cultural tourism in the area of Lake Tolvojärvi. On the Finnish side, partners from North Karelia were involved in the project, and not only from the Tuupovaara commune. During the project, joint products and travel packages will be created with entrepreneurs from Suojärvi, which will be tested in practice. In addition, great attention is paid to promoting the created products and increasing the readiness of Finnish entrepreneurs to participate in cross-border business.
