Abstract

Budući da se na području Republici Hrvatskoj primarno razvija masovni turizam, sve više do izražaja dolaze negativne strane turizma, a koje su najčešće povezane s negativnim djelovanjem turizma na okoliš. U ovom slučaju se nipošto ne može zaključiti da je riječ o održivom turizmu iz razloga što je u ovom slučaju naglasak ponajprije na gospodarskom segmentu održivog razvoja. S druge strane, turizam u ruralnim područjima (a posebice kada je riječ o planinskim područjima kao što je područje NP Risnjak) je slabije razvijen, a uz uložene napore, moguće je razviti specifične oblike turizma na ovim područjima kao što je primjerice ekoturizam ili sve popularniji robinzonski turizam. Pritom je nužno naglasak staviti na sinergiju djelovanja sva tri segmenta održivog razvoja turizma. Cilj istraživanja koje će se provesti u ovom radu temelji se na analiziranju uspješnosti primjene koncepta održivog razvoja turizma u NP Risnjak, odnosno analiziraju se tri skupine elemenata održivosti te se daje prikaz mogućnosti i ograničenja budućeg razvoja turizma na području NP Risnjak.

U teorijskom dijelu ovog rada pojmovno se određuje održivi turizam, odnosno razvoj turizma koji je usko povezan s konceptom održivosti koji se temelji na iskorištavanju resursa na odgovarajući način kako bi se ostvarile dobrobiti, a ujedno očuvali za korištenje budućim generacijama. NP Risnjak jedan je od osam nacionalnih parkova u Hrvatskoj, a ujedno jedno od najstrože zaštićenih područja. Riječ je o trećem najmanjem parku u Republici Hrvatskoj, ali i jednom od najmanje posjećenih parkova te sa slabije razvijenom infrastrukturom. Moguće je zaključiti da bi se na području ovog parka moglo jednostavno uravnotežiti sve tri komponente koje su preduvjet za održivi razvoj turizma budući da na području parka nema masovnog turizma. Pritom bi održivi razvoj mogao doprinijeti razvoju ekonomije na području parka i okolice, uz kreiranje dobrobiti za lokalno stanovništvo.

Abstract (english)

Since mass tourism is primarily developing in the territory of the Republic of Croatia, the negative aspects of tourism are becoming more and more pronounced, which are most often associated with the negative impact of tourism on the environment. In this case, it can by no means be concluded that this is sustainable tourism for the reason that in this case the emphasis is primarily on the economic segment of sustainable development. On the other hand, tourism in rural areas (especially in mountainous areas such as NP Risnjak) is less developed, and with invested efforts it is possible to develop specific forms of tourism in these areas such as ecotourism or increasingly popular Robinson tourism. It is necessary to emphasize the synergy of all three segments of sustainable tourism development. The aim of the research to be conducted in this paper is based on analyzing the success of the concept of sustainable tourism development in NP Risnjak, i.e. three groups of elements of sustainability are analyzed and the possibilities and limitations of future tourism development in NP Risnjak are presented.

The theoretical part of this thesis conceptually defines sustainable tourism, i.e. the development of tourism that is closely related to the concept of sustainability, which is based on the use of resources in an appropriate way to gain benefits and preserve them for future generations. NP Risnjak is one of eight national park sin Croatia, and at the same time one of the most strictly protected areas. It is the third smallest park in the Republic of Croatia, but also one of the least visited parks and with less developed infrastructure. It is possible to conclude that in the area of this park it would be easy to balance all three components that are required for sustainable tourism development since there is no mass tourism in the area of the park. At the same time, sustainable development could contribute to the development of the economy in the park and its surroundings, while creating benefits for the local population.
