The Municipality of Pakostane is well known for the immense beauty of its landscapes and the manifold features of its natural environment. This is where the Nature Park of Lake Vransko can be found, together with the island of Vrgada, the gateway to the Kornati Islands. The towns of Pakostane and Drage are the tourism gems of the Municipality. Unfortunately throughout its tourism development, the Municipality has failed to fully valorize its competitive advantages. The Club Mediterranne is regarded as the initiator and generator of change. Scenic spots alone can no longer sufficiently motivate tourist arrivals. What is needed is a concrete development strategy, based on innovated marketing, which will help to form a new tourist product and a recognisable identity. In creating a year-round offer, it is essential to activate all possibilities of tourism development through new elements of the offer. With improved transport routes (newly constructed motorway) and a new tourism policy, Pakostane could become the tourist hit of Dalmatia.

True, studies and research on tourism policy had a slow start, but today, most aspects of tourism policy are covered well in the literature, and notably, there has been a marked quickening in the pace of study over the past decade. There is proper documentation of the influences on policy, as are the roles of the different stakeholders in the policy process. This contrasts with the understanding of the work of the policymakers that are still incomplete or underdeveloped, as is the nature and influence of the different forms of policy output. The purpose of this chapter, based on one of the models of tourism policy making, is to examine the policy aspects for tourism development and examine the key issues therein. Adopting desk research approach and in-depth review of the literature, this chapter explores the issues regarding policy making and provides a policy perspective to this growing and dynamic sector.

The modern history of tourism in Nepal began with mountain tourism embodying the diversity of nature and culture, diversity, marginality, access difficulty, fragility, niche and aesthetics. Despite huge scope, Nepal has been unable to take full benefits of mountains, due to inadequate policies and fragile implementation. Pedestaled on secondary data, the key objective of this paper is to make a retrospective assessment of tourism policy and sustainable mountain tourism development efforts in Nepal. The sustainable development of mountain tourism relies on the government’s plans and policies and the efficient coordination between stakeholders. But the tourism policies have not been able to adequately address mountain tourism, and this has led to unbalanced growth of tourism sector. Despite the implementation of new Tourism Policy in 2008, adequate focus on mountain tourism is still missing. There is a lacuna of adequate driving force in tourism policy and it has failed to address vital areas of mountain tourism. Hence, there is an instant need of specific and separate mountain tourism policy encompassing integrated approach (abiding federal structure and local participation in planning and management) hence making mountain tourism sustainable, responsible and sensitive--ecologically and culturally.
