Sažetak
Tourism has grown and evolved significantly in past decades, and some of the destination hassles (e.g. crowding, rubbish, facility accessibility and conflicts) become more pronounced. Along with that, PAs face biological, social and economic fragmentation, suggesting that to be effective, the existing approaches to nature-based tourism management require improvement. This chapter aims to critically discuss the usability of tourism and visitor use management and planning frameworks to address the challenges associated with overtourism. The analysis suggests there is no one for all solution in terms of visitor use framework, but constituents of existing frameworks can be crucial for mitigating influences related to extensive visitation. The established frameworks should be advanced by consideration of new theoretical and practical advances, employing the system approach in which PAs are seen in the interrelation with other ecosystems. PA managers require tools and resources, which are necessary to prevail the pressure before they even happen. Greater involvement of stakeholders, goal-orientation and monitoring is needed.
