Seminar on Birdwatching Tourism in Estonia

Estonia is foremost attractive birdwatching destination because of it’s well-preserved nature and coign of vantage in terms of location and climate. Our landscapes are still habitats for rare birds of prey and our seacoasts for millions of migratory birds.

What are the possibilities for birdwatching and nature tourism in Estonia- view from outside? Is it only a vision or already functioning reality? Can the image of Estonia be “Green and sustainable”? Is nature tourism hindering or supporting the objectives of nature conservation? What kind of co-operation and networking have to be developed already today in order to prevent threats tomorrow? What kind of development activities have to be planned on national level? These was the questions asked and partly answered during the seminar, that took place in Matsalu National Park, 27th of November 2007.
Seminar was organized by Marika Mann, Estonian Nature Tours.
