dc.description.abstract | Since the demand for recreation in urban areas is not met, the demand for outdoor recreation in rural areas is increasing. Rural towns, in particular, consider open space recreation demands as an opportunity to realize their desire to integrate into the tourism sector. However, the inability to plan the increasing demand for recreation puts pressure on rural areas. Local governments are trying to be included in the Cittaslow movement in order to integrate into the tourism sector with their rural qualities. Cittaslow approach, which focuses on preserving the original rural characteristics of the settlements directing the recreational potential in the surrounding areas can be considered as an opportunity for this approach to succeed. In order for the landscape planning strategies that local governments will develop in directing the recreational potential to be reliable, they should follow scientific geographical techniques. This study focuses on the importance of expanding the nature- based recreation opportunities of the towns included in the Cittaslow network, assuming that the regulation of the recreation potential that will provide the Cittaslow principles by the local governments will be the most important factor in the preservation of the rural quality. Based on the assumption that quality of life, tourism policy, awareness and social cohesion, which are among the Cittaslow criteria, should be considered not only in terms of city centers but also for its rural areas, it is aimed to determine the nature- based recreation mapping possibilities in Turkey / Malatya / Arapgir district. The study analyzes how local recreation planning can be supported by geographic techniques. Data and methodologies that can be employed in nature- based recreation planning have been determined based on the field study conducted in Arapgir district. Based on data and techniques, recreational potential and nature- culture recreation corridor were determined. The study presents a simple analysis and evaluation technique to effectively manage the recreational potential in local planning. © 2023 Peter Lang GmbH, Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften. | en_US |
