Tour de Culture is the only cultural non-competitive cycling and recreational activity in Kosovo OPEN TO ALL, professionals and amateurs, the young and the old, men and women.

Tour de Culture is an annual project organized for the first time in 2008. It was initiated, organized and financed jointly by Cultural Heritage without Borders (CHwB) and UN-HABITAT Kosovo offices, both funded by Sweden, aiming at promotion of natural and cultural heritage, non-motorized transport and environmental protection. Since 2014, the project is led only by CHwB Kosovo office and for many years now, the popularity of this project has attracted support of various donors, partners and general public.

This unique activity consists of synergies arising from principles of the European Heritage Days and European Mobility Week celebrated all over Europe during September.
