Invitation: Themed Lunch for Entrepreneurs in Berg en Dal
The municipality of Berg en Dal aims to be a sustainable destination for tourism. This means: a strong sector that benefits residents, entrepreneurs, and the environment. Tourism businesses are of high quality, sustainable, and accessible to everyone.
In recent years, the municipality has worked hard with entrepreneurs to achieve this goal. With success! In 2018, Berg en Dal participated for the first time in the Green Destinations programme. In 2023, the municipality even received the highest recognition: Certified Green Destination.
What can still be improved?
Despite this excellent result, there are still areas for improvement. For example:
- Gaining better insight into visitors
- Developing a clear action plan for sustainable tourism
- Creating a well-connected walking network to better distribute visitors
- Providing visitors with better information about sustainable tourism
For re-certification, the municipality must once again demonstrate what is already going well and where improvements can be made. This is an extensive and intensive process.
Themed Lunch: Join the Discussion
During a special themed lunch, we will update you on the re-certification process. We will discuss:
- What is already being done
- What still needs to be done
- What this means for you as an entrepreneur
The meeting is interesting for all tourism entrepreneurs. Whether you run a day attraction or offer accommodation, large or small: you are very welcome.
