Responsible Adventure
This project will promote North Wales as a leading sustainable tourism destination. It aims to attract additional visitors in a way which is environmentally sustainable and considerate to local communities by maximising the social, economic and cultural benefits to the region. This is a multi-element project that forms part of a sustainable and eco-tourism package to develop a new sustainable cable car, slate explorer and eBus network.
The project will prioritise environmental sustainability with a decarbonisation strategy which looks to provide a green alternative to moving its customers around sites and North Wales. The Welsh language, culture, and heritage will be enhanced by offering an insight to the cultural heritage along the route of an eBus and providing historical context on the slate landscape in North Wales.
