Green Tourism in the Red Rose County
Tourism in Lancashire is as popular as ever, with visitors
to rural areas and the countryside as well as traditional
tourism destinations.
Lancashire has a wealth of green attractions. Country
Parks cover acres of open countryside to be enjoyed
and explored on the many miles of footpaths and bridleways.
Nature reserves reveal a wealth of woodland, grassland,
marine and fresh water habitats and a variety of bird,
animal, plant and insect species.
Other attractions include visitor centres that provide
an excellent base to learn about the environment of
Lancashire and green lifestyles through displays, exhibitions,
illustrations and activities. These centres offer an
insight into local environmental matters, and how their
work with local people and businesses makes a valuable
contribution to Lancashire's environment, countryside
and communities.
The tourism industry is trying to become as environmentally
sensitive as possible, and put something back into protecting
and managing the environment. Go to the search page,
to find places to stay and attractions or visitor centres
which take environmental issues into account.
