Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this chapter, we describe the Nordic region as a tourist destination primarily illustrated with examples from Norway, Sweden and Finland. The east–west and north–south gradients of these countries capture many of the special features of nature-based tourism in the Nordic region. In the context of tourism, it makes sense to speak in terms of a destination rather than a region, being a key concept of institutionalized tourism. However, regardless if one takes an economic geography, marketing management, customer, or cultural oriented approach (Saraniemi and Kylänen, 2011), we believe the Nordic region has much in common also as a tourist destination. We also argue there is a common understanding of what nature-based tourism is among the Nordic countries, which can be expressed as human activities occurring when visiting nature areas outside the ordinary neighborhood, or put differently, where the key attraction factor is nature and key activities are based on the nature environment (Koivula and Saastamoinen, 2005). For a more in-depth discussion about definitions of nature-based tourism we refer to the Introduction to this volume.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This book contributes to interdisciplinary research-based knowledge about nature-based tourism. The focus is on linkages between place-based resources and value-added experiences, providing a multifaceted “mosaic of knowledge” towards better understanding of the rapidly evolving nature-based tourism sector. The research was undertaken before the COVID-19 pandemic had its devastating effects on tourism in 2020. We argue that small-scale nature-based tourism entrepreneurs in rural regions are better positioned to survive such crisis than operators at typical mass-tourism destinations. Future avenues of research are briefly outlined, including the meaning and benefits ascribed to nature-based tourism, issues of sustainability and resilience, and pathways to new products in this highly dynamic sector.

Nordic Perspectives on Nature-based Tourism : From Place-based Resources to Value-added Experiences
- 2021
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Nature-based tourism (NBT) is a sector where entrepreneurial success is highly knowledge driven. This insightful book offers a comprehensive evaluation of NBT in a Nordic context, highlighting how long-established Nordic traditions of outdoor recreation practices can reveal lessons for the field more broadly. Chapters explore Nordic and international perspectives, local communities, market dynamics, firms, creativity, innovations and value-added experience products.

Nasjonalparker – fra fjell til kyst
- 2017

Ingår i: PLAN. - 0805-083X .- 1504-3045. ; :06

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- En trend i norsk vernepolitikk er at nye nasjonalparker ikke bare etableres i fjellområder, men i stor grad langs kysten hvor beskyttelse av det marine miljøet utgjør et sentralt vernemotiv. Ytre Hvaler nasjonalpark ble etablert i 2009, samtidig med Kosterhavet Nationalpark på svensk side. I 2013 ble Færder nasjonalpark i Tjøme og Nøtterøy kommuner innviet, mens Jomfruland (Telemark) og Raet (Aust-Agder) begge ble etablert i 2016. Hvilke nye utfordringer innebærer kystparkene for nasjonalparkforvaltningen, spesielt med henblikk på planlegging av reise-livsutvikling og friluftsliv, og hvilken grad er eksisterende forvaltningsmessige rammeverk tilpasset denne type områder?
