How to Develop an Ecotourism Park

Ecotourism parks are the wave of the future, especially with the onset of the green revolution and the rising consciousness about global warming. Ecotourism parks allow tourists to go on a vacation without leaving too much of a carbon footprint. These parks put natural activities in the forefront and they rely less on electronics, artificial landscaping, and other amenities which are bad for the environment. If you want to get in on the ecotourist business, developing an ecotourism park is a good bet for revenue.

Instructions

  1. The First Steps

    • 1

      Decide what you want in your ecotourism park. Consider everything from hotel rooms and hiking trails to restaurants and anything else which will attract tourists.

    • 2

      Pick a site for your ecotourism park which is big enough to include all of your amenities.

    • 3

      Call various businesses about getting the resources to construct your ecotourism park. This includes construction companies, green energy companies, and various retailers.

    Steps to Designing Your Ecotourism Park to Environmentally Friendly Standards

    • 4

      Make any building you put in your park completely reliable on green energy. This includes windpower, solar power, and hydrogen gas.

    • 5

      Have the park fit into the environment rather than have the environment fit into your park. This means building your buildings, roads, and other amenities around the existing landscaping instead of bulldozing it for your own landscape.

    • 6

      Use materials for your buildings and roads from local companies. This way, not too much exhaust from trucks and airplanes is put into the air.

    • 7

      Have your restaurants in your ecotourism park serve local cuisine from local farms. By embracing the slow food movement, less food does not have to be shipped over long distances, and thus there is less vehicle exhaust in the air.

    • 8

      Emphasize walking trails in your park instead of roads. If less people are driving in the park, this means there will be less car exhaust in the air.

    Making the Park Into A Reality

    • 9

      Make a plan for your park with a notebook. Include the park features, design guidelines, and photos of the site.

    • 10

      Draw renderings of what you want your park to look like with your drawing paper and colored pencils. Include an aerial rendering as well as renderings from the perspective of the tourist.

    • 11

      Present your notebook and renderings to a local planning agency or real estate company. Make sure you give off a professional appearance as you are presenting your ideas.
