 Nature and Active Tourism

The active tourism, of nature and

rural accommodations, is a suitable
choice to travel with friends or
children and family. It is excellent for
environmental educational and to
enjoy activities most of them focused
on the environmental education and
the enjoyment of the nature
environment. Nature tourism and
Active tourism are connected because nature tourism is responsible travel to natural
areas, which conserves the environment and improves the welfare of local people and
active tourism is responsible travel to foreign areas requiring physical and mental
participation from the tourist and following the maxims of sustainability, protection of
biodiversity and conservation of nature. In both of these type of tourism are important
elements like recreation and education, respect and contemplation, action, exercise and
active involvement in company of an expert local friend, an academically competent tour
guide.
