Factores determinantes del turismo rural en espacios protegidos como impulso para el desarrollo rural en España
Abstract
The objective of the work is to characterize and study rural tourism in protected areas as an economic option for local development. Factor Analysis, Cluster Analysis and Discriminant Analysis are applied, identifying three determining factors of rural tourism: Tourist-labor efficiency, tourist occupation, resources and stay. The tourist flow between coastal areas and nearby rural areas favors the integration of rural tourism, producing a positive impact on labor and tourism aspects of rural areas. It is necessary to achieve the integration of protected areas in the rural environment, so that a rebalancing of the territory takes place and for tourism to function as an element of social and territorial development and improvement, without neglecting the conservation of natural resources.
