A business accelerator supporting communities along Romania’s Via Transilvanica trail has increased the number of initiatives it will finance from 10 to 15. The program was expanded after its evaluation process identified more viable proposals than the initial budget could support.
The selected projects cover local food, accommodation, experiential tourism, cultural and natural heritage activities, physical recovery services, and assistance for hikers, including bicycle repairs and local guiding.
