大學生對溫泉區生態旅遊認知之研究

觀光遊憩資源的需求日漸增加，生活價值觀的改變、環境意識普遍提高，以及消費型態改變，生態保育之觀念亦日漸高漲。生態旅遊更被大家認爲是兼顧保育、維護自然環境及促進當地的經濟發展的利用旅遊方式。本文針對生態旅遊原則且依北投溫泉地區發展現況，設計生態旅遊認知架構圖作爲問卷設計之基礎，分析其基本資料與對生態旅遊的意象、認知程度與情形。以兼顧觀光與生態保育的平衡發展，達到自然環境資源永續經營利用的目標。研究結果顯示，大學生大多以小團體方式遊玩，且推測從電視節目和網路資訊得知其生態旅遊資訊。受測者在旅遊行程中，以「交通可及性」及「環境景觀」爲優先考量。大學生對於生態及一般的旅遊認知差距甚小，對生態旅遊的認知仍未能完全了解生態旅遊的意涵與精神，因而在不經意當中可能表現出偏差的生態旅遊行爲。建議相關單位在推動生態旅遊的同時，應加強環境保育與生態旅遊的宣導教育，且可透過電視節目或報章雜誌來宣導其內涵。
