We want to present you a fantastic initiative organized by the European Greenways Association on first European “Greenways photo contest” under the project "Greenways Outdoor” (open-air greenways), co-financed by the Cosme program of the European Union and of which we are part as partners in our capacity as organizers of cycling trips along the European Greenways.
The central objective is to promote greenways as infrastructures especially suitable for the practice of outdoor activities for all types of users, whatever their preparation and at any time of the year. The greenways and all the elements that surround them are the protagonists of this contest.
Photos will be valued that show elements of the infrastructure itself (viaducts, tunnels, old railway buildings, towpaths, etc.) in short, the rich railway heritage that dots all of Europe, the architectural, cultural and natural riches of the environment, places and unique elements, and in a very special way the practice of outdoor activities by different types of users (cyclists, hikers, athletes, families, etc.).
