Abstract: DANUrB, the Interreg Danube Transnational Programme project, aims to explore the unused and hidden cultural
and natural heritage resources to enhance sustainable tourism in the settlements along the Danube. Within the
framework of this project we have examined the green infrastructure of the selected pilot city Štúrovo and its
potential to contribute to the offer of thematic tourist routes and to the creation of the common tourism destination
brand of the Danube settlements that can increase the number of visitors and can prolong their stay in the region.
We have developed a set of criteria for the evaluation of green spaces for their selection and inclusion into the
thematic location-based audio tours offered by a mobile application. Sites for local interventions as pilot actions
or for further planning activities have been selected and landscape design proposals for these sites have been
conducted by students. The research points out the prominence of green infrastructure in the development of
strategies for tourism enhancement.
