New Initiative to Transform South-Estonian Waterways Launched

A €3.9 million project is underway to develop a unified tourism and recreation network across South-Estonia, encompassing Lake Võrtsjärv, the Emajõgi river, and Peipsi Lake. The initiative, formally launched today, represents a collaborative effort between the municipalities of Tartu, Viljandi, Põlva, Valga, and Jõgeva, alongside various development organizations, companies, and non-governmental organizations. The project aims to integrate these significant waterways into a cohesive and accessible network for tourism and recreational activities.

Funding for the ambitious development will be provided through a combination of sources, reflecting the broad support for the venture. Specifically, resources will be allocated to renovations, including the restoration of the vessel Vanemuine, as detailed in initial plans. The overall goal is to stimulate economic growth in the region while simultaneously enhancing the natural beauty and recreational opportunities available along the waterways.

This multi-faceted project represents a significant investment in the future of South-Estonia’s tourism sector and promises to reshape the area’s landscape through strategic development.
