Challenges And Opportunities

The unique ecosystem of the Himalayas with its pristine natural beauty has long been home to endless charms and fascinations attracting tourist from across the world. With resources to support sprawling tourism industry the Himalayas have become one of the most visited tourist regions both in terms of Leisure as well as spiritual tourism. Over the years the booming tourism industry has its share in degrading the fragile mountain ecosystem. Recognizing the potential of tourism to foster socio economic growth and to maintain the local environment, the concept of sustainable tourism has come into place. Being ecologically rich and vulnerable at the same time the development of tourism industry in the Himalayan region must thrive within the ambit of natures limitations. Declaring several ecological rich and vulnerable areas in Uttarakhand to be Eco sensitive zones has redefined not only the type, intensity, exclusivity and inclusivity of tourism activities but also redefined the overall role of tourism in ensuring long term sustainability and viability in such areas. A compendium of communitys perspective on challenges and opportunities in Gangotri Eco sensitive zone in Himalayan state of Uttarakhand India has been presented in the paper. The potential impact on local people, economy and tourism industry itself, post designating popular tourist destination Bhagirathi Valley in Uttarkashi, Uttarakhand as Eco sensitive zone has been highlighted. Perception of people on various dimensions of sustainable tourism which can potentially thrive within the Eco sensitive zone balancing both the mountain ecosystem as well as local economy have also be assessed highlighting the need of sustainable tourism practices in such fragile mountainous regions.

AbstractThe municipality of Bahía Solano possesses important tourist attractions. The majority of them consist of natural wonders such as whale, dolphin and bird watching. Its marine area offers diving courses, all types of fishing, surfing, other water sports etc. The enormous amount of natural wealth stands in contrast to the lack of local development and the high rate of poverty among its inhabitants. Bahía Solano has enviable tourist professions but a low level of competition. This research proposes a methodology of social innovation, elaborated by researchers, that involves nature, communities and tour operators, where a connection of surveys with the expectations and perceptions of the different entities (inhabitants, tourists, and tour operators) has been obtained.
