The overall aim of increasing exploitation of tourist potential in order to increase social and economic effects of cross- border area defines concrete activities that will be implemented during the project. The projects envisions the marking of 400 km-length tracks in Poland and 200km in Belarus, creation of 78 various-size information boards located on a cross-border bicycle track as well as putting parking places, publication of multilingual tourist guidebook and map. The area is planned to be turned into a place of active leisure, which will attract tourists and contribute to the increase of investment into the region.
