The new strategy of using forest for leisure activities leads to managed recreation
Original language description
The philosophy promoted until recently concerning the need for multifunctional use of forest roads, not only for forest management purposes but also for recreation, has led to collisions between forest visitors and forest management activities and subsequently, to collisions among visitors themselves. With the increasing wealth of the society and the amount of leisure time, hiking in forests has become part of the preferred lifestyle and active approach to life. Additionally, the number of different types of activities that the public wishes to do in the forest has risen too. The act concentrates these activities to forest roads particularly. However, forest roads, especially in the vicinity of larger cities, have started to be overloaded by the concentration of visitors of the forest ecosystems. Forest owners' and managers' effort should be to manage and disperse the various interest groups of visitors within the forest ecosystem so that each visitor can engage in their activity without a negative impact on the surrounding environment, other visitors and the forestry. An example of this strategy is the construction of a singletrail in the territory of the Training Forest Enterprise Masaryk Forest Křtiny. These cycling trails concentrate a large group of visitors to a specific territory and narrow terrain routes. It is also possible to have agreements with the operators of the trails on their maintenance and partial responsibility for their operation.
