As part of the visit, an insight was also made into the "Low-Carbon Infinity Trail" project, which is being implemented within the first call of the IPA III Cross-Border Cooperation Program Interreg (VI-A) with Bulgaria, within Priority 3 - "Integrated Development of the Border Region".
The total value of the project for Berovo is 117,736 euros, of which 15% is provided as co-financing by the Ministry of Local Self-Government. Key activities include improving the tourist experience by improving the infrastructure around Berovo Lake, including the reconstruction of an off-road bicycle path with a length of 22 kilometers and the construction of a modern rest area for cyclists - Velo Hub. Tourism is a sector of strategic importance, which the Ministry is continuously strengthening through the full use of IPA cross-border cooperation funds.
