Abstract
This study contains an overview of what the discourse surrounding EuroVelo 15 as a
sustainable tourism initiative is, looking at interviews with stakeholders and blogs by current
users. EuroVelo is a European cycling network, that aims to connect Europe by bicycle and
offer a sustainable holiday option, alternative to mainstream mass tourism. This research is
important in the field of sustainable tourism with applications to alternative development and
slow tourism, as it offers new insights into the perspectives of local communities and cycling
tourists in Europe. It adopts a people-centred approach in order to examine the social context
and discursive patterns.
