A Symbol of our Progress – the European Peace Walk (EPW) Project.

The EPW is a trans-national, cross border initiative set on creating an integrated tourist platform along the borders of Central Europe to celebrate the present European culture of peace.

Open to all, the EPW will be a 570km permanent walkway with supporting services and accommodation provided along the way, that will drive a vibrant new tourism trade directly into the region.

The EPW will start in the Brno-Vienna-Bratislava Triangle, then pass Sopron, Maribor and Slovenj Gradec, before ending at the Mediterranean Sea in Trieste, Italy.

To be promoted to a new generation of Europeans, the EPW will soon become a recognised fixture of modern day Europe, and within a decade, is expected to have 90,000 participants per annum using it.
