Описание:
This book reports the results of research undertaken in relation to visitor impacts and visitor experiences associated with two long distance walking tracks within the World Heritage listed Wet Tropics region of North Queensland, Australia. Biophysical impacts were recorded along more than 50 kilometers of walking tracks using a range of rapid assessment methods. In addition in excess of 600 hikers were surveyed about their hiking experiences. This research found that a number of linkages exist between the quality of visitors experiences and the extent of impact upon the environment. Following analysis a number of site specific recommendations were made to protected area managers and the results of the work are now being used by conservation agencies to improve the management of long distance walking tracks within the Wet Tropics region.Похожие книги
