Greenways are routes, trails or natural corridors used in harmony with their ecological function and their potential for sport, tourism and recreation.

Greenways

Greenways is an assistance and grant making program of the Czech Environmental Partnership Foundation. Through this program the Foundation provides support to organizations and projects aiming at sustainable development along the trails and natural corridors. Creation of a network of organizations and projects that can share experience and exchange ideas nationally and internationally is an important goal of the program as well.
 

Greenways bring benefits for nature conservation and heritage protection and interpretation, provide opportunities for better mobility, recreation and tourism, and challenge lifestyles and sustainable use of natural resources.
