Our Cooperation with the Hiking Team of Syros highlighted the importance of hiking tourism on our island.
Thematic routes are recognized as a rapidly growing form of alternative tourism that has flourished in recent years. The purposes of our meeting are :
– The highlighting of the importance of thematic routes, as a special form of tourism, in the development of places
– The identification of the possibilities that exist for more dynamic utilization and promotion of the natural and cultural wealth of Syros.
The tourism industry is considered an important source of wealth for the economy, but it can have significant negative effects on the environment. Thus, the need arose to ensure those conditions that would ensure growth, without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. This is exactly the content of the term “sustainable development” which is the ideological core of any modern tourism intervention with alternative criteria, that is, it respects the nature and culture of a place.
