Achievements (EN):

The main goal of the Suvorov routes project was to create a cultural tourism route and tourism products around it, which will be implemented by tourism entrepreneurs and cultural producers in the joint network of actors emerging in Southeast Finland and the Leningrad region. In addition, the goals were to promote the accessibility of objects related to the theme by preparing reports and plans for routes and road infrastructure. Already during the project, workshops and test trips were organized for tourism entrepreneurs to design the tourism products that would be available during the project. The project itself implemented several Suvorov-themed cultural events and also participated in cultural tourism events organized by others by bringing Suvorov information to them. As a result of the Suvorov project, the participating Finnish companies got content to implement new tourism products, gathered experience from test trips and networked with other operators. Restaurant companies were able to use new food products to offer to customers. At Suvorov's sites in the Saimaa area, two boat piers were renewed and picnic tables were built on the canals for the enjoyment of visitors. The prepared plans for the boat route through historican canals and the new bridge on main road, as well as the feasibility plans for the Vuoksi canal, enable the preparation of investments that improve public tourism and the accessibility of these destinations.
