Abstract

Turizam se, u recentnom razdoblju, promaknuo u jednu od vodećih ekonomskih aktivnosti na određenim prostorima. Republika Hrvatska jedna je od rijetkih država u Europi koja gotovo petinu BDP-a ostvaruje u turizmu. Kako se taj turizam gotovo dominantno svodi na 'sun and sea' oblik, pitanje je može li on i koliko dugo ostati konkurentan na svjetskom tržištu? Međimurska županija, lokalne turističke zajednice kao i pojedini predstavnici lokalnih samouprava prepoznali su potencijal turističkog razvoja svog prostora te shodno tome podigli stupanj razvoja cijele županije. Posebni će naglasak u ovom radu biti stavljen na pitoreskno ruralno područje Gornjeg Međimurja, odnosno njemu pripadajućih općina Sveti Juraj na Bregu, Sveti Martin na Muri, Štrigova, Selnica te Gornji Mihaljevec, a kako bi se dobio sveobuhvatan uvid u potrebne poteze koji su bili povučeni od strane lokalnih vlasti kao i potencijalne probleme provedeni su intervjui s načelnicima pojedinih općina te određenim pružateljima turističkih usluga na promatranom području. Području koje ne nudi klasične, globalizirane oblike turizma, već pomno ciljani turizam koji ima tendenciju rasta te privlači mnoge domaće i strane turiste. Te se općine međusobno razlikuju po stupnju turističkog razvoja što se očituje u različitom broju smještajnih kapaciteta, a shodno tome i različitom broju turističkih dolazaka i noćenja. No, navedene općine karakterizira i zajedničko odstupanje od ostatka ruralnog Međimurja prema stupnju turističkog razvoja.

Abstract (english)

Tourism has recently been assessed as one of the leading economic activities in certain areas. The Republic of Croatia is one of the few countries in Europe that is deriving almost one-fifth of its GDP from tourism. As this tourism is almost predominantly reduced to the form of "sun and sea", the question is whether it can remain competitive on the world market for a long time? Međimurje County, local tourist boards as well as individual representatives of local governments have recognized the potential for tourism development in their area, and thus raised the level of development of the entire county. Special emphasis in this paper will be placed on the picturesque rural area of Upper Međimurje, i.e. its municipalities Sveti Juraj na Bregu, Sveti Martin na Muri, Štrigova, Selnica and Gornji Mihaljevec. In order to gain a comprehensive insight into the actions that were taken by local authorities as well as potential problems, interviews were conducted with the mayors of individual municipalities and certain providers of tourist services in the observed area. An area that does not offer classic, globalized forms of tourism, but carefully targeted tourism that has a tendency to grow and attracts many domestic and foreign tourists. These municipalities differ in the degree of tourist development, which is reflected in the varied number of accommodation capacities, and consequently the number of tourist arrivals and overnight stays. However, these municipalities are also characterized by a common deviation from the rest of rural Međimurje according to the level of tourism development.
