Sažetak
This chapter focuses on the development of rural tourism in the area surrounding Krka National Park, situated in northern Dalmatia. Via various functions, especially tourism and recreation, protected areas can influence local development. Since the 1960s, settlements in the surroundings of Krka National Park have faced challenges related to depopulation and socio-economic development. The goal of this chapter is to analyse factors of recent intense development of rural tourism, its spatial impacts in the immediate vicinity of the Park, and various potentials for further development. These trends should be looked at in the framework of tourism development of the Park itself, as well as tourism development trends in the interior of Dalmatia. A case study of the Town of Drniš was conducted to closely examine recent trends and the potential for development of rural tourism in the near future.
