Development of nature trips to the territory of the Republic of Karelia
Funded by Interreg II Karelia 1996-1999

Objective of the project

The purpose of the project was to create a comprehensive and reliable cross-border package of tourism services (from existing and new products) available all year round. Products include military history trips to the Viena Karelia and nature trips to the Republic of Karelia. The aim was to improve the efficiency of sales and marketing of products of Finnish companies, in Finland and then in Central Europe. Collaboration between the companies will be intensified throughout the Programme area and operations will grow by mapping more products from the Republic of Karelia. The goal was also to develop products that will match the range of nature tourism products in North Karelia and, possibly, create joint products of North Karelia and the Republic of Karelia.
