Currently, a total of 60 facilities are certified in all categories in the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and Croatia.
Bike Friendly is a well-known synonym for cyclist-friendly services. Services marked with the Bike Friendly label are facilities/services/attractions, etc. that meet the minimum standards adapted to cycle tourists and their needs, i.e. entities that are recognized for their efforts to create a pleasant atmosphere for cycle tourists. Bike Friendly Standard is a program that, for the needs of cycle tourism, gives recognition and certification to service providers who, meeting the conditions, support bicycle rides, bicycle trips and bicycle tourist experiences in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro.
It is intended for different categories of facilities/services/attractions that want their service to adapt as much as possible to the needs of this specific type of tourist. Depending on the type of facilities/services/attractions and their size, the Bike Friendly Standard (BFS) gives all interested parties the opportunity to join this process and create more favorable conditions in the region for the development of this specific segment of the tourist offer, and to promote their services and make a financial profit.
