The contemporary conservation reserve visitor. phenomenon
NEWSOME, David - Personal Name
HUGHES, Michael - Personal Name
Visitors place a complex array of demands on conservation reserves, including
provisions for recreation. Rising recreation demand includes a new suite of activities
ranging from adventure racing, music events, and motorised activities to extreme sports.
Policy implications raise questions anew: what is the fundamental purpose of conservation
reserves—nature conservation or recreation or both, and where should the emphasis lie?
There is a risk that the current and future emphasis appears to be on increased commer-
cialisation, marketing of conservation reserves as music and/or sporting event venues,
places where personal physical challenges can be undertaken alongside a mentality that
celebrates human achievement rather than the appreciation of nature! Such a trend may de-
emphasise visitor perceptions of conservation reserves as tools for nature conservation.
The reported trend in recreational activity requires debate, policy direction and target areas
need protected area management effectiveness evaluation to assess conservation
implications.
