Active types of tourism characteristics of properties. Active tourism: product specifics. Active tourism is divided into several types

Hiking as a form active rest, health promotion.

Hiking is an effective means of active recreation, after work, recovery and health promotion.

The health value of weekend hiking is determined, first of all, by the combination of physical exercise and being in natural conditions. Staying in the fresh air surrounded by beautiful natural landscapes and active muscle activity effectively stimulates recovery processes in the body, improves mood, and contributes to a surge of vigor and strength.

Studies have shown that hiking has a beneficial effect on human health, namely:

  • Improving the functioning of all major organs and systems of the body;
  • Improving the functions of external and internal respiration: increasing the strength and power of the respiratory muscles, vital capacity and maximum ventilation of the lungs, creating favorable conditions for performing muscular work;
  • Increased power of the heart muscle.

Prolonged walking leads to a significant increase in the volume of circulating blood, which helps to increase the efficiency of many of its functions.

For those who regularly exercise hiking There is a significant increase in the number of red blood cells and hemoglobin, due to which the blood can take in more oxygen from the air.

With regular hiking, the formation of mitochondria - the main energy stations of the body - increases in the body, their size and number increase. This is very important to ensure the body’s performance and resistance to harmful factors.

Endurance training improves the functions of the body's endocrine system, which occupies an important place in the overall adaptation and mobilization of the body's energy and plastic resources.

The positive effect of hiking also lies in toning the activity of the central nervous system due to nerve impulses that arise under the influence of moderate muscle contractions.

Impulses coming from the muscles to the central nervous system maintain the tone of the brain centers and normalize the ratio of excitation and inhibition processes. In addition, redox processes and blood supply to the brain are improved, fatigue is relieved, and the energy expended during work is restored more quickly.

Traveling on foot with carrying small loads, during which all the main muscle groups practically participate in the work, effectively contributes to the formation of a harmonious physique and posture, especially at student age (up to 25 years), when the body is in the process of growth, has great plasticity and is easy to bend. transformative influences.

In the process of regular hiking, the tourist’s muscles become strong, efficient and at the same time not hypertrophied.

During hiking trips, close communication between the traveler and nature and the direct impact of natural factors on the body: air, moderate solar radiation, cold influences, atmospheric pressure, healing factors of forests, etc. are of great importance.

Being in a deciduous forest has a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system; staying in a coniferous forest is very useful for the prevention of infectious diseases, since the phytoncides produced by coniferous trees kill pathogenic microorganisms. They are especially deadly for Koch's bacillus, which causes tuberculosis.

Traveling in the mountains effectively helps increase the body's resistance and resistance to the effects of a wide variety of unfavorable environmental factors.

The smells of herbs, the sun, clean air, especially mountain air, and staying near bodies of water, in the mountains, where there are many negatively charged ions that stimulate the nervous and cardiovascular systems, strengthen health.

Prolonged stay in the open air, especially on hikes with overnight stays under open air and in tents, helps to harden the body.

Weekend hikes, in addition to recreational ones, have great practical significance. First of all, with proper organization of preparation for them and their implementation, they contribute to the successful formation of many personal qualities and skills necessary for active life and highly productive work in modern socio-economic conditions.

These are integral personality qualities:

  • Endurance – the ability to perform a wide variety of work for a long time without reducing its effectiveness;
  • Balance (even pace in work, even character and mood, calmness in dealing with people, restraint, endurance, etc.);
  • Activity (initiative, energy, enterprise, etc.)
  • Communication skills (contact, sociability, collectivism, ability to get along with people).

Physical qualities:

  • General and strength endurance;
  • Agility.

Mental qualities:

  • Observation;
  • Volume, distribution, switching, concentration, stability of attention;
  • The ability to quickly analyze information, choose the right solution and quickly implement it;
  • Working and long-term memory
  • Emotional stability

Volitional qualities:

  • Determination;
  • Discipline;
  • Initiative;
  • Persistence;
  • Composure and composure;
  • Resilience - the ability to withstand great difficulties in completing tasks

Since tourism activities are carried out for the most part in a team, when one depends on the other, then tactfulness, attentive attitude towards each other, and the ability to put the interests of the team above one’s own are mandatory. All this provides great opportunities for the education and self-education of moral qualities: devotion to the team, consciousness of public duty, collectivism and comradely mutual assistance, honesty and truthfulness, humane attitude towards people, etc.

The great value of hikes also lies in the fact that they help satisfy the natural needs of young men for motor physical activity, the craving for new, varied romantic sensations, the desire for discovery and self-affirmation, bring the joy of informal communication, allow students to better reveal their personal qualities, and receive a powerful charge positive stimulating emotions.

Properly organized hikes make an important contribution to the general educational and applied training of their participants.

During their travels, both in their own country and in other countries, trekking participants get acquainted with the country and its people, their life, work, and national culture. They expand their knowledge in the field of botany, the animal world, geology, geography, meteorology, astronomy, agriculture and forestry, history, culture, and art. They also learn to use a map, compass, respond adequately to unusual conditions, and provide first aid.

Tourist travel is of great help in studying history and shaping a worldview, leading to respect and active protection of natural resources.

The practical value of tourist trips is also expressed in the fact that they help to actively develop vital skills:

  • Active rest
  • Competent systematic exercise, maintaining your physical shape;
  • Rational walking
  • Carrying small loads
  • Life support in non-standard and extreme environmental conditions

From all of the above, the usefulness and necessity of organizing and conducting tourist hiking trips is obvious, especially for people who are still at the stage of forming an individual and personality.

Russia has unique experience in developing tourism as a sport. This is a rare case when tourism, in the context of the tourist’s personality, acts not only as a sphere of consumption of services, but also as a sphere of their provision. After all, people professionally involved in sports tourism are a powerful personnel reserve for rescuers in the natural environment. It is generally accepted sports tourism It is also the most budget-friendly in comparison with other types and forms of tourism, which is especially attractive for young people (including such formats as backpacking, volunteer tourism, etc.).

But in modern conditions, there is a rapid growth in types of active tourism based on the use of modern means of transportation and equipment, which opens up even to ordinary tourists those regions in which there was previously no talk of developing tourism - high-mountainous, arctic, desert, swampy, etc.

The growing popularity of both active tourism and forms of active recreation, to which predominantly young people are committed, lays a powerful foundation for the further development of tourism as an industry and service industry. After all, a passion for active tourism in youth shapes a person who gets used to traveling and experiences a strong need for it. With age, a person most often begins to use

ACTIVE TOURISM AS A MODERN TREND OF TOURISM INDUSTRY

Distinguished readers & colleagues!

The United Nations (UN) has declared 2017 as the International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development. In this context we have an excellent opportunity to examine the diversity of forms and parameters of sustainability in the industry. Active tourism is no doubt one of them. After all, it's a well known truth that life is movement!

Russia has a unique experience in the tourism development as a sport. This is the rare case when tourism in the context of a tourist's personality is not only a sphere of consumption of services, but also the sphere of their provision. Nevertheless, people professionally engaged in sports tourism is a powerful reserve of rescuers in the natural environment. Sports tourism is generally understood to be the cheapest as compared to other types and forms of tourism. This makes different types of sports tourism especially attractive for young people, such as backpacking, volunteering tourism, etc.

But in modern conditions there is a rapid growth of active tourism based on the use of modern means of transportation and equipment. This opens even for ordinary tourists inaccessible regions, where it was absolutely impossible to develop tourism formerly -highlands, arctic, desert, marshy and others.

The growth of the popularity of both active tourism and active recreation, which is mostly youth-friendly, lays a powerful foundation for the further tourism development as an branch and the service industry. After all, the enthusiasm for active tourism in at young ages forms a person who is accustomed to travel and experiences a stable need in this. With aging, a person often begins to feel the need for more comfortable conditions for rest, he needs better service. This is how homo touristicus is formed - a man of a new

torture the need for more comfortable conditions rest, he needs better service. This is how homo touristicus is formed - a new type of person who strives to understand the world through his own personal sensations experienced in the place of travel. Hence the logical conclusion is that active tourism is the basis, the foundation of the tourism industry, without which the industry may not have clear and distinct prospects. Therefore, it is so important to support and develop in every possible way forms of active tourism. It is also worth remembering that youth active tourism in the vast majority of cases is carried out on the territory of their native country, and this is the basis for the formation of a stable “first love” - patriotism, the ability to see the best and beautiful in one’s own country, homeland-centric thinking. This debatable statement is still awaiting its practical confirmation, but something gives reason to consider it axiomatic.

Naturally, active tourism is not limited only to the youth audience; it is often preferred by men of various types. age categories, and recently it has become in demand among middle-aged and older women. This phenomenon should be studied in detail and the motivation that drives a variety of people to engage in active tourism should be understood. This will allow you to personalize offers for tourist market, identify demand factors and offer a fundamentally new service in the segment of active recreation and tourism that meets client expectations. The current issue of the journal presents articles that provide an interesting regional cross-section of the experience of developing certain types of active tourism in Russia, revealing the resource potential and forms of organization of this area of ​​tourism in our country that still remain thoroughly unexplored. We hope that in future issues our authors will continue to share with us their experience in developing active tourism in the regions of Russia and other countries of the world.

It should also be remembered that youthful active tourism in the majority of cases is carried out on the territory of motherland.

Tourism, as a type of active recreation, is becoming increasingly popular in modern conditions. People who spend 9-10 hours of the day in offices and offices 5-6 days a week, and after work see only TV and bed, prefer to spend their time differently during their vacation. At the same time, a trip with tents for any number of days today is not associated with restrictions and problems, because the quality of tourist equipment allows everyone to equip their trip as comfortably as possible.

The PharmaMir store can be a good assistant in every traveler’s preparations. A large selection and variety of products designed for outdoor activities and travel can satisfy the needs and wishes of even the most significant tourism professionals. Equipment, tourist tents, sleeping bags, dishes for hiking, camping furniture, as well as lamps, lanterns and even heaters - this is far from full list that modern tourist can take with you on a trip.
It is better to purchase any hiking equipment in specialized stores. This especially applies to those tourists who are going on an active holiday for the first time. Experienced consultants can advise which goods will be necessary on a hike, and what will simply be an extra burden along the way. When buying travel equipment, you need to constantly remember that you will have to carry all the things on yourself, so the need for each thing should be considered carefully and from all sides.

Tourist backpacks in the PharmaMir store are located separately from all products and occupy a special niche, since they iconic thing for every tourist. Half the success of the entire event depends on the size, lightness and convenience of the backpack. The backpack should not only be roomy, but also comfortable for the body, because it should be carried on the back. Soft but durable straps, high-quality tailoring, water resistance, reliable fasteners and locks - this is not a complete list of characteristics that a good travel backpack should have.

Similar requirements apply to almost all things and accessories that must be taken with you in hiking trip. No matter how many days the trip lasts, all situations and possible needs during it must be thought out with special care. In order for an active holiday to bring only positive emotions and good memories, preparation for it should last as long, if not longer, than the hike itself.
And in order to reduce the amount of time spent on choosing tourist equipment, and not be nervous about the need for this or that thing, it is better to seek help from professionals who will not only tell you what is needed or not needed during a hike, but will also help you choose the right types and brands of leisure goods.

Able to solve health problems with strict adherence to the correct mode of movement around the area, when performing preparatory hardening measures and with possession of some knowledge on the prevention of diseases. Tourism as a type of active recreation involves some kind of travel. It could be like a trip various types transport, and hiking (and often both at the same time). When engaged in tourism, you can have a good rest, while changing the environment and nature of the activity, and admire the beautiful natural landscapes, get acquainted with various cultural and historical attractions different regions, communicate with other travel participants and people living in the visited areas populated areas. When carrying out such active recreation, it is important to know the specifics of dosing physical activity, take into account the requirements for organizing nutrition and be able to choose the right clothes that are comfortable for traveling.

When engaged in tourism, adaptation to stress occurs much easier than when playing sports. Hiking mode is the best way to quickly adapt to new conditions. While moving around the area on foot, and even with an additional load in the form of a backpack on your shoulders, almost all the muscles of the human body receive quite a decent physical load. Therefore, when actively moving on a hiking trip, it is necessary to periodically stop to rest and recuperate.

Despite the inevitable long-term physical activity during hiking, a properly organized tourist trip contributes to the formation of a cheerful mood and has a pronounced healing effect on a person’s health.

However, with some omissions during tourism, not entirely desirable effects on the body are possible. For example, in case of insufficient physical training of tourists, overwork and exhaustion may develop. Such consequences can also be caused by the presence of any chronic diseases that do not manifest themselves in the absence of physical activity V Everyday life, but immediately make themselves felt in hiking conditions. Such factors, however, are not an absolute contraindication to the implementation of such an active type of recreation as tourism, however, if there are deviations in the state of health, the possible loads on the participants of the trip should be carefully taken into account in advance. For example, when actively moving over rough terrain, you need to calculate the load on each participant in such a way as to prevent the development of fatigue and prevent a decrease in concentration. A long absence of rest stops during a hike is fraught with the development of a state of fatigue in a person, while the tourist becomes more susceptible to injury and is much less able to act adequately in possible emergency situations.

Thus tourism is publicly accessible active look rest, but at the same time requires both physical and psychological readiness of a person to endure physical exertion during travel.
