THE DEVELOPMENT OF ECO-TOURISM IN LITHUANIA
Journal Title: Jaunųjų mokslininkų darbai - Year 2014, Vol 41, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper analyzes eco-tourism definitions, principles, and position in the tourism sector. Eco-tourism is seen as a source of innovations, inspiring a variety of tourism services, and incorporating eco-tourism services to mass tourism service packages. The diversity of the eco-tourism concept in Lithuania is examined. The research of eco-tourism development opportunities through EU structural support and private funding is provided. Eco-tourism development opportunities in Lithuania are revealed due to a resident’s survey. Public recreation forms and habits, awareness about eco-tourism, the objects of attractions and stimulating means for eco-tourism development are identified. It was found that the concept of eco-tourism is primarily associated with a small negative impact on the environment, as well as with environmental awareness, enjoying the authentic cultural traditions and knowledge of ethnic identities, natural environment perception, and job creation. It was determined that in Lithuania, the eco-tourism concept and tourism services attributed to this kind of tourism are not yet clearly identified. The research revealed that the development of the eco-tourism can be mostly encouraged by the establishment of high-quality camping facilities and biking trails, framing eco-travel routes and more intensive dissemination of information concerning eco- tourism. The fundamental reasons of the rare eco-tourism practice is that eco-tour programs are not publicized and the individual creation of eco-travel routes is complicated as it requires specific knowledge.
