Object Of Study

O Cerrado brasileiro é o segundo maior bioma do Brasil, e se espalha por oito Estados diferentes, o que desempenha um papel crucial na questão dos recursos hídricos. A região do estudo da pesquisa é uma área remanescente de 130 mil hectares de Cerrado, que desde 1972 vem passando por constantes problemas fundiários em decorrência da tentativa ineficiente do Governo Brasileiro de implantar uma Unidade de Conservação na área. Enquanto esse processo se desenrola de forma precária e sem perspectivas de finalização, a área vem sofrendo prejuízos ambientais, tendo em vista que não existe proteção e nem diretrizes para a sua conservação. Um dos segmentos econômicos que mais tem prosperado na região é o Ecoturismo, que é uma eficaz ferramenta para a educação ambiental, contribui para a conservação do patrimônio ambiental e cultural das localidades, pois o meio ambiente preservado passa a ser entendido como a fonte de renda para as comunidades locais. O objetivo do trabalho foi criar e adequar nesta área uma rota ecoturística de trekking para envolver os empreendimentos turísticos existentes, ligando-os através de um caminho ecológico composto por trilhas, na área ainda não regularizada do Parque Nacional da Serra da Canastra no município de São João Batista do Glória-MG. Para isso, foram percorridos os caminhos já existentes, mapeando as trilhas já abertas que poderiam ser utilizadas; apresentando os tempos necessários de cada percurso divididos por trechos; as severidades das condições dos terrenos visando implantar a Norma Técnica ABNT NBR 15505-2: Turismo com atividades de caminhada; norma esta sugerida pelo Ministério do Turismo e Associação Brasileira de Empresas de Turismo de Aventura – ABETA. A criação e a classificação da rota de trekking e a disponibilização dos dados de GPS proporciona segurança para quem pretende se aventurar nas trilhas e tende a impulsionar o turismo, inserindo o pólo ecoturístico de São João Batista do Glória no roll de destinos turísticos providos de trilhas adequadas ao trekking. Outro benefício será o aumento da demanda por guias de turismo locais, profissionalizando o turismo na região de estudo. Os resultados serão decisivos para a adequação do produto turístico, gerando qualidade da visitação, maior facilidade na comercialização dos roteiros, culminando em mais desenvolvimento econômico e sustentável para a região. Development and application of a hiking trail an area of Serra da Canastra National Park ABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is the second largest biome in Brazil, and spreads over eight different States, which plays a crucial role in the issue of water resources. The object of study is the remainder area of 200,000 hectares of Cerrado biome in the National Park of Serra da Canastra, a zone that has been under land disputes since 1972 as a result of the Brazilian Government’s inefficiency to implement a conservation unit covering the whole area. While this situation persists with no solution in sight, the area suffers environmental damage aggravated by the absence of protective measures and guidelines for conservation. Ecotourism is one of the most successful business activities carried out in the region and can function as an effective tool for environmental education and conservation of local natural resources and cultural heritage. It enables local communities to benefit financially from preserved natural resources, providing incentives for conservation. The objective is to create and tailor this area an ecotourism hiking trails to engage existing ecotourism businesses by linking them through an ecological path composed of trails in the area have not regularized in the Serra da Canastra National Park in São João Batista do Glória –MG. To this, they were covered existing paths, since mapping the open tracks that could be used; presenting the necessary times for each route divided into sections; the severities of the land conditions in order to implement the Technical Standard NBR 15505-2 Holidays with hiking activities; this standard suggested by the Ministry of Tourism and the Brazilian Association of Adventure Tourism Companies – ABETA. The creation and classification of the hiking trails and the availability of GPS data provides security for those who want to venture out on the trails and tends to boost tourism by entering the ecotourism hub of São João Batista do Glória in the roll of tourist destinations provided tracks suitable for hiking. Another benefit is the increased demand for local tour guides, more professional and aware tourism in the study area. The results will be decisive for the adequacy of the tourism product, generating quality visitors, greater ease in marketing scripts, resulting in more economic development to the region, sustainably.

Ecological Tourism

A importância do turismo em nível mundial, tem se tornado inquestionável, devido a sua grande contribuição econômica. O Brasil é considerado como o país que tem o maior potencial turístico em recursos naturais em todo o mundo. Destaca-se que esta riqueza está sobre proteção em unidades de conservação, que são os Parques Nacionais. O Parque Nacional da Serra da Canastra possui grandes riquezas naturais, abriga inúmeras cachoeiras, rios, riachos, quedas d’água, gruta e um sítio arqueológico Letreiro com inscrições rupestres. É uma região bastante procurada devido a suas grandes e belas atrações turísticas. Desta forma, o turismo na região deve ser explorado e planejado, para que a atividade seja expandida de forma sustentável, e a região beneficiada baseando se nos três pilares da sustentabilidade. Dada essa importância, é necessária a regularização das atividades de caminhada para consequentemente torná-las ambientalmente corretas. O presente trabalho, objetivou mapear, classificar e certificar novas ramificações no eixo principal da Rota Ecoturística “Caminhos da Canastra” envolvendo novos empreendimentos turísticos e atrativos naturais de forma sustentável. O eixo principal “Caminhos da Canastra” se trata de um planejamento turístico realizado no parque, produto de um estudo de mestrado, o qual o presente trabalho é uma continuidade. Os resultados obtidos foram o mapeamento, classificação e certificação de seis rotas de trekking, são elas: Mirante – Maria Augusta, Mirante – Tamanduá, Santo Antônio – Maria Augusta, Santo Antônio – Tamanduá, Mata do Engenho – Maria Augusta, Mata do Engenho – Tamanduá. Estas rotas de trekking foram nomeadas como “Complexo da Mata”. Foram desenvolvidos painéis interpretativos para cada rota. O painel interpretativo é composto de mapa do percurso e informações sobre a classificação do percurso segundo as normas da ABNT NBR 15505-2:2008 Turismo com atividades de caminhada. Foram produzidos painéis em forma de placas a serem entregues nas pousadas envolvidas com a finalidade de disponibilizar as informações das atividades de trekking com o intuito de auxiliar os turistas quanto à segurança e conscientização nas atividades turísticas desenvolvidas no Parque Nacional da Serra da Canastra. Mapping, classification and certification of trekking routes in an area of the National Park of Serra da Canastra (MG Brazil) The relevance of tourism has become unquestionable throughout the world due to its great economic significance. With vast natural resources, Brazil has great potential for ecotourism development. These abundant resources are preserved in “Conservation Units” or protected areas such as national parks. The Serra da Canastra National Park is rich in natural resources. The park comprises numerous waterfalls, rivers, streams, waterfalls, a cave and the archaeological site "Letreiro do Glória", where one can find primitive inscriptions. Because of its attractive natural environment, the region receives a large influx of visitors. Therefore, tourism activities in the area need to be planned and developed in a sustainable way, taking into account the three pillars of sustainability. In this sense, it is important to manage hiking activities in an environmental responsible manner. The purpose of this paper is to map, classify and certify new trails around the main axis of the "Caminhos da Canastra" ecotourism route, creating sustainable opportunities for new tourism businesses. It resumes the work of a master’s thesis dedicated to planning the main axis of the “Caminhos da Canastra” route. As a result, six hiking trails were mapped, classified and certified: Mirante - Maria Augusta, Mirante - Tamanduá, Santo Antônio - Maria Augusta, Santo Antônio - Tamanduá, Mata do Engenho - Maria Augusta, Mata do Engenho - Tamanduá. This trail network was named "Complexo da Mata". Information panels were developed for each trail, displaying a map of the route and information about the hiking experience according to the norm "ABNT NBR 15505-2: 2008 Hiking Tourism". The panels were offered to local guesthouses in a bid to educate tourists, promoting safety and increasing environmental awareness at Parque Nacional da Serra da Canastra.

This paper reviews the behavior of medical tourists as an interdisciplinary object of study (evidence from Moscow region). We first examine the global medical tourism market, offering the classification of medical tourism trips from the perspective of consumer needs. We reveal the drivers for medical tourism development in emerging economies (drawing on India’s experience). We construct a conceptual model of overall satisfaction of medical tourists as consumers of combined tourist and medical services. In partnership with Moscow medical tourist agencies we conducted an empirical study to identify the factors of consumer behavior of outbound medical tourists. The analysis makes it possible to substantiate the relevance of the proposed model, as well as to identify a number of distinctive features of the medical tourism segment based on the identified features of Russian medical tourists’ behavior. We conclude with the implications to promote medical tourist destinations for Russia’s medical tourists and to form a tourism product that fully meets their needs.

Tourism authorities in Thailand have consistently pursued profit-seeking mass tourism, resulting in the detriment of the natural resources in major tourist destinations. In response, sustainable tourism projects centered on preserving the environment have been established but neglect the financial needs of tour operators. The objective of this study was to investigate the determinants of tourist expenditure per capita in Thailand using a dataset consisting of 31 countries from 2010 to 2017. The analysis was based on an autoregressive distributed lag model (ARDL) and used a panel estimated generalized least square (ELGS). Generating such knowledge is essential for tourist authorities to develop profitable and sustainable tourism projects in tourist destinations whose natural resources have been affected by profit-seeking tourism. The tourism expenditure per capita is positively affected by word of mouth, income, and the rising prices in other major tourist destinations in Asia. However, it was negatively affected by relative levels of price and corruption. Sustainable tourism projects can be used to develop activities that will help distinguish Thailand from other tourism destinations in Asia. However, in implementing these sustainable tourism initiatives, the mark-up should be minimized to keep tourist prices in Thailand competitive.

The aim of this paper is (i) to review the method of valorization of natural resources as applied in the environmental impact assessment, and (ii) to develop recommendations on how valorization expertise should be prepared in order to be comprehensive and transparent. Valorization is the proper time to carry out identi>cation of the possible negative environmental impacts and damages of a planned project. It is recommended to perform valorization due to the state (numbers) and functions (quality) of natural resources. This approach is related to the concept of environmental damage, which is defined as a measurable adverse change in a natural resource or measurable impairment of a natural resource service (which means the functions performed by a natural resource for the benefit of another natural resource or the public). Valorization of natural resources should include an assessment of potential environmental damage, including an impact on the local biodiversity, the ecological connectivity, the N2000 network, and the legally protected areas. The valorization of natural resources should be performed at the following thematic levels focusing on the role of the area under consideration due to: (1) the implementation of the objectives of protection of Nature 2000 network and its overall coherence, (2) the implementation of the objectives of protection of legally protected areas other than N2000, (3) the maintenance of the ecological connectivity in a context other than the coherence of Nature 2000 network, (4) the maintenance of species and natural habitats with favorable conservation status, (5) the conservation of species and natural habitat types that are not legally protected.

La colonización dirigida, espontánea y estratégica, además de la permanente ampliación de la frontera agrícola para la extracción de recursos naturales, han determinado el uso y zonificación del espacio amazónico en los últimos 50 años. Las drásticas huellas socio-económicos, culturales y ambientales generadas por estos procesos han impactado negativamente la vida de los pueblos ancestrales y la naturaleza. Una consecuencia drástica es el cambio de la comprensión de la territorialidad en el interior de los territorios indígenas, y de la percepción que de aquel cambio tienen el Estado y los actores asentados en el entorno territorial comunitario. El presente estudio aborda el caso del pueblo waorani e inquiere cómo la ampliación de la frontera extractiva intensificaría los impactos negativos del proceso de desterritorialización en el Parque Nacional Yasuní, poniendo en mayor riesgo la integridad física y cultural de los de los pueblos que viven en aislamiento voluntario: Tagaeri y Oñamenane u otros de los cuales no se tiene referencia.   Abstract Targeted, spontaneous and strategic colonization, in addition to the permanent expansion of the agricultural frontier for the extraction of natural resources, has determined the use and zoning of the Amazonian space in the las 50 years. The drastic socioeconomic, cultural and environmental impacts generated by these processes have impated negatively the life of the ancestral peoples and nature. A drastic consequence is the change of the understanding of the territoriality in the interior of the indigenous territories, and the perception that the state and the actors settled in the community territorial environment have of that change. This study addresses the case of the Waorani people and inquires how the expansion of the extractive frontier would intensify the negative impacts of the process of decentralization in the Yasuní National Park, putting at greater risk the physical and cultural integrity of the peoples living in voluntary isolation: Tagaeri and Onamenane or others of which there is no reference.

Topicality. All relationships in the field of nature use begin with the legislative framework on the protection of nature and its individual components, which defines the functions of the state regulating environmental activities, as well as defined rights and responsibilities of environmental users. In most developed countries, it is a law on nature conservation or environmental acts that establishes the general principles and objectives of a policy designed to ensure the conceptual uniformity and integrity of all legislative practice in the use, protection and restoration of natural resources. System and methods of administrative management in using natural resources are based on: system of legislative acts of the country and the region; a system of normative-directive and methodological (obligatory to use) documents of state bodies; system of plans, programs, projects, tasks; operational management system. Aim and tasks. The purpose of the article is to justify institutional reforms in order to ensure the implementation of environmental legislation, the division of powers of environmental authorities at the national, regional and municipal levels on the procedure for decision-making and its implementation. Research results. The lack of coordination control functions using natural resources, namely the lack of a horizontal connection between the supervisory authorities, leads to the fact that many bodies control the same natural resource. First of all, the uncontrolled tourism activity with the use of recreational resources is observed. Thus, the main task of the state administration should be to assess the quantitative and qualitative equivalents of existing and potential natural resources and determine the strategic directions of their management, their use and protection by business entities and households. In this case, it is necessary to determine with which mechanisms to achieve the optimal use of recreational and tourist resources while minimizing environmental damage, minimizing costs and maximizing the social, economic and environmental effects of their use.Conclusions. Taking into account the economic effect that the country can have, it is expedient to take into account not only the economic potential of the recreational and tourist territory, but also the development of alternative activities on it. Control the enterprises located in this territory and conduct their economic activity with the use or extraction and subsequent resale of the recreational resource. Principal is the redistribution of taxes from economic activity to the restoration of recreational resources at the urban level. It is necessary to provide methodological explanations regarding tax provisions and benefits to enterprises involved in this process, taking into account the status of the territory in which the recreation process has arisen, taking into account the medical characteristics of the territory and the extraction of natural resources in this territory.
