Carefully set up in natural protected areas (but not only there), interpretation trails can become valuable tools for environmental education, outdoor lessons, or simply a way of turning a regular walk or hike into an interactive experience.
In our view, nature is a place full of mysteries and wonders just waiting to be discovered and appreciated. More often than not, however, even whilst out on an excursion, we forget to engage all our senses; we aren’t paying attention, we’re in a hurry, or we don’t know where to look. Well-designed and well-constructed interpretation trails come to the rescue in such situations. They transform a walk into a multi-sensory learning experience that helps visitors discover and understand the natural and cultural values of the area they are visiting. The Association of Ecotourism in Romania has created several such interpretation trails in different parts of the country, and we hope that the details of each trail presented below will whet your appetite for knowledge.
