Improved outdoor tourism infrastructure – The project has established a network of cross-border hiking and biking trails between two countries in a length of more than 300 km, as well as thematic trails. These trails are equipped with marking and signalization which abide by states standards that will help hikers and bikers with orientation and information on how to connect to other existing trails.

Standardized cross-border information for tourists and tourism agencies – The project has collected all the GPS datas of the new and existing trails in the cross-border area, along with waypoints for various tourism services providers and points of interests, and has developed maps that include this information. The project has also created Android and iOS apps which include all this information and offline maps, and can be used on all smart devices.

Increasing the visibility of Accursed Mountains as outdoor destination – The project has placed billboards at the most frequented entry points of towns, developed brochures and maps with detail information on safety, orientation, service providers, points of interest and outdoor activities available in this area, promotional videos on the Accursed Mountains and its attractions.
