In addition to exercise trails there are other different and interesting trails with steel-rope-ride over the tube-trail and skiing trail. |
| Output and results indicators: | The I stage of the project "Pannjärve Adventure Park" realized in 2011 fulfilled the expectations of the project initiators. It involved the stakeholders to promote the fresh-air activities in woods and participation in rural tourism. The number of visitors was also in accordance to expectations, two new jobs were created and they are currently working on establishing new trails. It is also important to emphasize the indirect impact to Ida-Viru county's tourism, recreation economy and spare time activities and other management - namely the tourists are visiting the area more often because it will offer them something wonderful and new. The new adventure park is also good for visitors health and will promote healthy life-style through outdoor available services which could also influence the visitor's views on spending their free time in a more positive and healthier way. NGO Mäekeskus is planning an expansion. They will establish a special trail for children and the longest rope-falling trail which would cross over a lake. |
