Resumo: | National Parks (NPs) are instruments for nature protection and tourism that demand tools for proper visitation. With the advance of tourism in these areas, NPs assume a double responsibility: to maintain visitor experience quality and to contribute with all their potential to society. In this sense, the Recreation Opportunity Spectrum (ROS) tool categorizes “Visitation Opportunities” classes (Pristine, Primitive, Natural, Rural, and Urban) to identify specific attributes of each environment and each visiting public and, thus, organize tourist use. In this scenario, we aimed to analyze the opportunities offered in 10 National Parks, five in Brazil and five in the United States (US), to understand how different Opportunity Classes can influence tourist visitation. The data were drawn from bibliographic and documentary research. After identifying the tourist potential of each NP, we applied the ROS methodology. The results showed a relationship between the number of opportunities offered and the number of visitors received by the National Parks, confirming the assumption that, both in Brazilian and American parks, different recreational opportunities are related to the largest number of visitors. Thus, the Recreation Opportunity Spectrum (ROS) tool presents itself as an important management tool for tourism visitation. The possibility of creating visitation classes in natural areas must be widely used to guarantee sustainable tourism. |

Com o avanço do turismo nestas áreas, os PN assumem dupla responsabilidade: manter a qualidade da experiência dos visitantes e contribuir com todo seu potencial para sociedade. Nesse sentido, a ferramenta Recreation Opportunity Spectrum (ROS) categoriza as denominadas “Oportunidades de Visitação” em diferentes classes (Prístina, Primitiva, Natural, Rural e Urbana) para identificar atributos específicos para cada ambiente e público, organizando o turismo. Neste cenário, o objetivo foi analisar as oportunidades oferecidas em 10 Parques Nacionais, cinco no Brasil e cinco nos Estados Unidos da América e entender como as diferentes Classes de Oportunidades podem influenciar a visitação turística. Os dados foram obtidos a partir de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental. Identificado os potenciais turísticos de cada PN, aplicou-se a metodologia ROS. Os resultados mostraram que existe relação entre o número de oportunidades oferecidas e o número de visitantes que o Parque Nacional recebe, confirmando o pressuposto que, tanto nos Parques brasileiros quanto estadunidenses, diferentes oportunidades recreativas relaciona-se ao maior número visitantes. Dessa forma, a ferramenta Recreation Opportunity Spectrum apresenta-se como importante ferramenta de gestão da visitação turística. A possibilidade de criar classes de visitação em áreas naturais deve ser amplamente utilizada para garantir o turismo sustentável.Universidade Federal de Uberlândia2021-06-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/article/view/5851810.14393/SN-v33-2021-58518Sociedade & Natureza; Vol. 33 (2021)Sociedade & Natureza; v. 33 (2021)1982-45130103-1570reponame:Sociedade & natureza (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)instacron:UFUporenghttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/article/view/58518/32157https://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/article/view/58518/32158Copyright (c) 2021 Mucio do Amaral Figueiredo, Carolina Ribeiro Gomes, Geraldo Majela Moraes Salvioinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGomes, Carolina RibeiroFigueiredo, Mucio do AmaralSalvio, Geraldo Majela Moraes2021-07-28T18:28:11Zoai:ojs.www.seer.ufu.br:article/58518Revistahttp://www.sociedadenatureza.ig.ufu.br/PUBhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/sociedadenatureza/oai||sociedade.natureza.ufu@gmail.com|| lucianamelo@ufu.br1982-45130103-1570opendoar:2021-07-28T18:28:11Sociedade & natureza (Online) - Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)false |
