The importance of facilities for forest tourism to the development of forest tourism has been mentioned in many studies, but there is a lack of quantitative and specific research. In order to specifically study the effect of facilities for forest tourism on the development of forest tourism, a theoretical path from the cognition of the development level of facilities for forest tourism to the willingness of tourists to visit urban forest parks was constructed based on the perceived value theory. Then, the process and significance of the influence were quantitatively calculated by using a structural equation model (SEM). The results show that: (1) Cognition of the development level of facilities for forest tourism has a significant positive effect on the perceived value of landscape resources, the perceived value of the ecological environment, and tourists’ satisfaction. (2) The perceived value of the ecological environment has a significant positive effect on tourists’ satisfaction. (3) Tourists’ satisfaction has a significant positive effect on tourists’ willingness to visit urban forest parks. (4) The perceived value of landscape resources has no significant effect on tourists’ satisfaction. (5) The variety, layout, and advancement of facilities for forest tourism have a significant positive effect on the cognition of the development level of facilities for forest tourism, among which the layout has the most significant effect, followed by advancement and finally variety. We suggest that, when building facilities for forest tourism, tourists’ feelings and satisfaction should be the primary considerations.

“…On the one hand, this model can effectively avoid or reduce repetitive sports tourism market competition to guarantee the innovation and diversity of products; on the other hand, it can effectively allocate the specific resources of sports tourism so that they can be utilized in different time periods, geographical spaces, and functional uses. However, it will encounter obvious limitations in the implementation process, such as the theme tourism developed under this model can be easily imitated or copied [19,20].…”

et al. 2022

Sports tourism is a new form of tourism based on sports resources, which attracts people to participate and feel the interest of sports activities and nature, and is an important part of sports industry. Through the field survey method and logical analysis method, we make a comparative analysis of the five existing rural sports tourism integration development models in Guangxi, analyze the problems of the existing rural sports tourism integration development models in Guangxi from macro-, meso-, and microdimensions, propose corresponding development countermeasures, provide reference for promoting the national strategy of building important tourism bases in Guangxi and theoretical system construction, use the method of fuzzy mathematics to construct a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model, and apply this model to objectively evaluate the sports tourism resources in Guangxi Province. Finally, in response to the evaluation results, it is proposed to deeply develop characteristic advantageous sports tourism resources, focus on breakthroughs, develop fitness and leisure participation sports tourism industry, and reasonably lay out and cultivate some attractive sports tourism products.

How to Improve the Supply of Quasi-Public Forest Infrastructure When Government Is the Leader: Evidence from Experimental Economics

Forest infrastructure is an important material basis for healthy forests. According to public goods theory, most forest infrastructures are quasi-public goods, with demand exceeding supply, more than one supplier, unclear responsibilities between suppliers, and a resultant free-rider problem. This study explored ways to improve the supply of goods for forest infrastructure when the government—as leader—cooperates with foresters—as followers. Experimental economics were used to explain the factors that influence the behaviour of forest infrastructure quasi-public goods suppliers; to design twelve policy scenarios by communication, information feedback, rewards and punishments, and leadership styles; and to simulate the changes in foresters’ supply behaviour in different scenarios to analyse which policies were conducive to improving the supply of quasi-public forest infrastructures. The results were as follows: communication, rewards and punishments, information feedback, and leadership style reduce foresters’ free-riding behaviour; communication, rewards, and punishment increase supply, and, furthermore, the supply of the scenario with rewards and punishment is 1.792–4.616 times that of the situation without rewards and punishment; without the constraints of rewards and punishment, only feedback information reduces the supply; and the p values of the Mann–Whitney U test for the influence of leadership style on the supply level of forest infrastructure were all greater than 0.05, which indicates that no significant difference exists between leading by words and leading by example in supply improvement. When foresters are able to communicate with each other, reward and punishment exist, and information feedback is provided; hence, the supply of foresters is higher regardless of whether the government leads by words or by example. This study provided policy suggestions on how to improve the supply of quasi-public goods for forestry infrastructure, namely, that the organizer should organize foresters to fully negotiate before raising funds for infrastructure construction; publish, when appropriate, the supply and income of foresters; and formulate appropriate reward and punishment measures.
