LEADER Ouest Charente: enriching the tourism offer and the visitor experience
Projects may involve developing routes for tourism, running outdoor leisure activities, opening or modernising visitor circuits, events, destination marketing, heritage interpretation, professionalisation and creating group accommodation.
A tourist area becomes more attractive when its routes, heritage sites, outdoor activities and accommodation are connected into a coherent experience. This LEADER Ouest Charente action aims to structure a slow and heritage tourism offer, network players and improve the services offered to visitors.
