Lutsk and Rzeszow have rivers running through them: Styr and Wislok. Although both of them have been modified especially during last 100 years they still have a significant role for the cities. However, urban rivers are increasingly playing an aesthetic, educational and recreational role. Rivers are the basis for location of parks and other significant recreational areas in the cities. Unfortunately the problem of rivers pollution, reduction of natural spaces near rivers due to new buildings construction is still actual in cross-border cities. Although urban natural sites are popular within locals, they are rarely promoted for the cities visitors. At the same time while combining promotion of cultural and natural sites the cities can significantly improve their tourist attractiveness. The overall objective of the project is to increase the tourist attractiveness of Rzeszow and Lutsk by promotion and protection the natural heritage of urban rivers and bank areas. For this purpose a number of joint activities are planned in the project: improvement of natural heritage infrastructure near the rivers in both cities. A pier has to be modernized and equipped on Styr River in Lutsk and 2 flower meadows will be created near the Wislok river bank area, improving competence of specialists responsible for natural heritage protection, spatial planning and tourism development in Lutsk, wide promotional campaign of urban natural heritage of Lutsk and Rzeszow among residents and tourists. The project foresees the cross-border cooperation through the bilateral involvement in the activities implementation by Polish and Ukrainian partners. People living in both cities will benefit from the project as well as cross border community and visitors.
