      Eco-Adventures - Tristan Evergreen

      1

      Introduction

      The introductory chapter provides an overview of eco-adventures and their importance to the environment. Eco-adventures are termed as purposeful journeys that use the strength of nature to rejuvenate self and society. What differentiates eco-tourism from travel is that it includes a consciousness for the environment and cultural well-being of destinations. There is an emphasis on improving personal health and outlook through bettering the world. Defined by ATTA (Adventure Travel Trade Association) and the Nature Conservancy, eco-tourism is a responsible way of travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and sustains the well-being of local people/ecosystems. Countries that are home to natural wonders are often unsuitable for large-scale development. This raises a problem when trying to conserve natural territories. Eco-tourism allows for conservation through preservation. In a study done in Hawaii, tourists participating in eco-tourism activities spent more money per trip, stayed longer, and used more accommodations than regular sun and sea tourists. Step by step, tourists are making an effort to travel with a purpose and ideal for the environment, so surely it is possible to maintain touristic revenues through eco-tourism, in turn providing an economic incentive for conservation. Evidently, eco-tourism provides a way to devalue lands and make it more profitable to keep them as natural reserves.

      Benefits of Eco-Adventures

      National parks and eco-adventure tourism have a close relationship, even though less energy and resources have been dedicated to understanding the actual needs of ecotourism in other settings. Eco-adventure explorers, trekkers, and rafters are seriously concerned with the preparation and management policies that restrict the type and degree of human influence. The history of national parks has shown a continuum of changing concepts and evolutions. Emerging new ideas and management policies for wilderness parks and renewable resources areas have posed a diversity of conflicting viewpoints and values. Practitioners of eco-adventure tourism share a vision with the current conservation movement, to maintain the earth's wildland.

      Environmental conservation is a tremendously well-known rationale for eco-adventure journey, outdoor sporting events, and tourist-oriented trips into natural areas. Eco-adventure tourism is growing on such a scale in most countries that not enough scientific and educational research has been conducted on how to maintain the integrity of the natural world and capitalize on the benefits that tourism can convey to the maintenance of natural resources. Eco-adventure tourism is a nature primarily based largely form of tourism in which tourists seek and engage with relatively untouched areas away from urban settings, often seen as the empty white sand beach and clear ocean, rivers that weave through deep
