Project "Cycling-friendly destinations"
The Institution for Cycle Tourism has a project in progress to develop cycling-friendly destinations in Norway. The work started in the autumn of 2003 and concludes in spring 2005.
The development of such a concept, with processes of quality control and other necessities to establish a cycling-friendly destination, will provide even better facilities for cyclists in Norway.
About the project
The project's main aim will be to prepare and test a concept for the development, organisation and promotion of the cycling facilities within a limited geographical area or destination. It should be possible to use the concept at all destinations wishing to develop their cycling facilities.
The concept shall give the cycle tourist the opportunity to use a destination as a base, and either make arranged cycling day trips in the area or generally use the bicycle as a means of transport.
The project has the following mandate:
"Develop and test a concept for cycling-friendly destinations".
In co-operation with the destinations Rauland, Smøla and Sandnes, that wish to deal in cycle tourism, the concept shall be prepared with regard to product development, adaptation, organisation and quality control of the destination, plus promotion. An important part of the concept development will be to prepare quality controls in order to be able to call a place a cycling-friendly destination.
Evaluation of the entire project will take place following the summer season of 2004 and the first "cycling-friendly destinations" in Norway will be ready for the summer season in 2005.
We are working so that you as a cycling tourist can be sure that a cycling-friendly area is a safe and good place to cycle!
The first cycling-friendly destinations are Trysil, the Smøla island off Kristiansund, the mountain area of Rauland in Telemark and Bø/Midt-Telemark.
