PASTORAL TOURISM ISSUES

Ioan Walter Sauer, Maria Sauer, Ana Gina Armaș, Ioan Petroman

Abstract


Pastoral tourism is a new tourism niche, very much related to agritourism, cultural tourism, educational tourism, and sustainable tourism due to its numerous implications involving the attitude of both farmers/shepherds and of tourists. There is a multitude of terms related to pastoralism and transhumance, which shows the potential of this new sub-type of tourism involving a multi-millennial practice all over the world. The authors present the different constraints hindering both pastoralism/transhumance and pastoral tourism, as well as a considerable number of solutions to these issues.

Keywords
