About

Starting from the rich horseback riding tradition and cultural equestrian heritage, the HORIS project will enrich and diversify the tourist offer in the Programme area. With the co-existence of man and horse throughout the centuries in this part of Croatia and Serbia, the project foresees to develop tailor-made activities in which cultural and natural heritage will be rediscovered and brought closer to new visitors. The project will establish a horse trail with accompanying infrastructure needed for horse-riding and educate tourism operators, local community and farmers in order to integrate the cross-border tourism offer.

Partners

Municipality of Nijemci (CRO), lead partner of the project, will focus on service providers and educate them on the tourism perspective of horse breeding and horse riding.
