Abstract

The goal of this paper is to analyse and assess the resource potential for developing tourism in a local tourist destination. In the first part of the research work there are presented several models for studying the tourist potential of a territory. What unites them is the fact that most models emphasize the separate constituent elements and the interrelations between them. In the second part the resource potential for developing tourism in the researched site is analysed. The major issues of the research concern the parameters of tourist supply that include geographical location, natural and resource potential, cultural-and-historic potential, touristic infrastructure and superstructure. The results of the analysis show good opportunities for the researched site to be formed as a local tourist destination through creating sustainable connection tourism - nature - sport - folklore - ecology.
