2007 – Best Emerging European Rural Destinations of Excellence
For the very first award in 2007, Europe rediscovered itself in its rural dimension. The quest was directed towards destinations that supported the development of rural tourism by making the most of their heritage, offering new products and improving the spread of visitors over seasons.
Ten destinations of excellence were awarded the title “Best Emerging European Rural Destination of Excellence”. 9 Member States and 1 candidate country took part in the project. The award ceremony took place at the European Tourism Forum in Algarve, Portugal, 25-26 October 2007.
National websites have been developed aiming at promoting the EDEN process.
