Developed with support from local authorities, civil society, and Polish Aid Moldova, the trail promotes sustainable rural tourism. It includes scenic viewpoints, birdwatching spots, restored mills, and local gastronomic experiences. Visitors can engage in hands-on activities such as jam-making and bread baking while connecting with local communities.

Integrated into the Eko App Moldova, the trail provides digital maps, information panels, and eco-markers to guide tourists and enhance their experience. The initiative aims to boost the local economy and inspire community-led development, especially in rural areas.

State Secretary Andrei Chistol praised the trail as a strategic model of digitalized, community-driven tourism, offering real opportunities for both locals and visitors.
