Save the date!

EUROPARC is celebrating excellence in sustainable tourism on the 9th of December! From 14:00 – 17:30 CET, the ECST & STAR Award ceremony will take place in Brussels at the European Committee of the Regions.

Apart from Parks that are (re)awarded with the ECST this year, we are also delighted to celebrate the winners of the STAR Awards, recognising businesses that work closely with Protected Areas holding the European Charter for Sustainable Tourism and contribute to sustainable tourism development.

More information will follow, for now: save the date!
