Abstract

In Italy there are over 7,000 km of abandoned railways, which constitute a privileged infrastructure for the development of greenways. About 800 km have already been reused, but often the projects have been limited only to the creation of cycle paths of local interest, due to the lack of an overview. In order to enhance the uniqueness of these routes and promote their attractiveness, the Italian Greenways Association and the Italian Touring Club have created a specific brand called "Binari Verdi", to identify the greenways built along disused rail-ways that have excellent technical and environmental characteristics, thus promoting a new tourism product able to bring im-portant benefits to the territories crossed.
