Sažetak
The aim of the research was to gain insight in the components of the human-ecosystem model on the specific example of protected natural areas in the Zadar County on one side and promotion and design of tourist offer in protected areas on the other side. A poll conducted (Krpina, 2014) indicated that natural beauty is what attracts the majority of those who visit Zadar County (68%) ; 53% of tourists come to visit protected natural objects and of all the turist attractions most of the visitors value natural beauty along with the environmental preservation. In 2010, in the area of the Paklenica National Park, Telaščica Nature Park, and Lake Vrana Nature Park, the research was conducted using the method of questionnaires and analysis of visitor attitudes, demands, motivations for visit and satisfaction with the services and offer in protected areas. For all three parks the same questionnaires printed in nine languages were used, which allowed an integral analysis of all data collected as well as the comparability of data between the parks. The comparison of the answers were analysed by χ2 tests or Fisher’s exact test. For the analysis of the main categorical variables, Correspondence Analysis (CA) was used. In this way, a basis for future continuous research was created. The results obtained have been compared to the results of research in other National and Nature Parks in Croatia (Marušić et all. 2007) and research the role of forests and forestry in tourism and nature protection in the Zadar County (Krpina, 2014). Results present one of the entries to the models that enable the formulation of recommendations for management that is at the same time focused on nature conservation and visitor satisfaction.
