“…In general, respondents have a negative preference (WTT) for increasing travel distance. This is in line with studies by Tyrväinen (1999Tyrväinen ( , 2001), Jensen and Koch (2004), and Degenhardt et al (2011), which report the positive effect of proximity of forest on the frequency of visit. Thus, increase in travel distance will decrease preference of forest visitation.…”

“…the pedestrians who tend to use recreation areas close to the settlement that did not entirely match with their stated landscape preferences. This identified mismatch corresponds with literature on psychological restoration that emphasizes the time and energy constraints affecting people's outdoor recreation (Degenhardt et al, 2011;Korpela & Kinnunen, 2011).…”

“…This is not to say that we neglect "place"-related theories, but that they play a far less important role in this paper. Our study shows that landscape parameters can explain residents presence around mid-sized towns to a surprisingly high degree -far higher than psychological models of recreation behavior (Degenhardt et al 2010;Degenhardt, Frick, Buchecker, & Guscher, 2011). We also show that there exists (1) a culture-independent, common understanding of preferred landscape properties for recreation (2) group-specific preferences, and (3) site-specific preferences, i.e.…”

“…Degenhardt et al (2011) referiram que a exposição à natureza contribui para o bem-estar geral e para a saúde dos indivíduos, e que as investigações indicaram uma série de benefícios físicos, emocionais, cognitivos, sociais, educacionais e espirituais associados à recreação na natureza. Face a esses resultados, sugeriram que um acesso rápido dentro das cidades a diversas áreas de lazer e a disponibilização de informação espacial (como a localização dos espaços) de fácil utilização podem ser formas de potenciar uma prática recreativa frequente por parte da população trabalhista.…”

Resumo: A prática de desportos de natureza é um fenómeno em crescimento. Por sua vez, o conceito de sustentabilidade, explorado na investigação em turismo, merece aprofundamento no que diz respeito ao papel do desporto de natureza no aumento da consciência ambiental, na educação e na economia. Este ensaio, cuja metodologia assenta numa revisão de literatura, foi desenvolvido com o intuito de melhor esclarecer este contributo e, face a uma reflexão crítica ao conceito de sustentabilidade, apresentar uma abordagem que contribua para a sua efetividade. A análise permitiu compreender o impacto económico destas atividades, assim como as necessidades de maior investimento em projetos educacionais através do desporto. Para a sua efetividade apresenta-se uma proposta de um processo de governança, que se inicia a partir das necessidades da sociedade civil e posteriormente dos restantes stakeholders e que deverá condicionar as decisões assumidas nos patamares superiores da cadeia governativa. Abstract:The practice of nature-based sports is a growing phenomenon. In turn, the concept of sustainability, explored in tourism research, deserves greater attention regarding the role of nature-based sports as a way of increasing environmental awareness in education and the economy. This essay, whose methodology is based on a literature review, was developed in order to better clarify this contribution and, given a critical reflection on the concept of sustainability, to present an approach that contributes to its effectiveness. The analysis allowed us to understand the economic impact of these activities as well as the need for more investment in sports-based educational projects. It proposes a governance process that starts from civil society's needs and then looks into those of other stakeholders. The process should condition decisions taken at higher levels of the governance chain.Resumen: La práctica de deportes de naturaleza es un fenómeno creciente.

Este ensayo, cuya metodología se basa en una revisión de la literatura, se desarrolló con el fin de aclarar esta contribución y realizar una reflexión crítica al concepto de sustentabilidad, presentando un enfoque que contribuya a su eficacia. El análisis permitió comprender el impacto económico de estas actividades, así como la necesidad de mayores inversiones en proyectos educacionales a través del deporte. Se presenta, para lograr eficacia, la propuesta de un proceso de gobernanza, que se inicia a partir de las necesidades de la sociedad civil y, posteriormente, de las otras partes interesadas y que debe condicionar las decisiones tomadas en los niveles superiores de la cadena de gobierno.
