Using tourism potentialWhether city sightseeing or culture tourism, hiking, climbing or water-related tourism – along the Via Regia there are possibilities waiting for all target groups to discover. However, many of the destinations, particularly those away from the main centres, are hardly known on the tourist markets and accessibility deficits impede their development. At the same time though, the joint exploitation of tourism potential is in the interest of all participants because, as the multiplicity of choice increases, so does the appeal of the overall area as a tourist destination.
The target of the spatial development strategy is to establish the Via Regia as a connection between cities and regions with attractive tourism prospects and thus help to create a network - and promote the use - of tourism potentials. With this regard, the following focuses were identified:
- European city and culture tourism,
- setting up of networked tourism packages and
- international marketing of regional tourism packages.
