Visitor management is an important part of the functioning of nature protected areas, where its implementation directly affects and can have significant negative impacts on the conservation of biological and other values of the area. Medvednica Nature Park is part of the ecological network Natura 2000 - HR2000583 Medvednica, important for the protection of as many as 22 target species and 8 target habitat types. During the development of the Visitor Management Plan for the Medvednica Nature Park, the principle of the “limit of acceptable change” method was applied through the valorization of areas for the protection of flora, fauna and habitat types. The extent to which each of the 12 categories of registered pressures affects biodiversity was analyzed. Elements of the visitor infrastructure were also further analyzed, with an estimated extent of the impact and a level of disturbance intensity added to each. According to the integrated impact assessment, a proposal for conservation measures has been made. An important conservation measure is defined as quiet zones (non-disturbance zones) in which visitor activities will be controlled or even limited to those that least cause possible habitat degradation and/or contribute to the disturbance of fauna. Through the spatial analysis 4 classes of (non-) disturbance zones are formed. For each zone biophysical conditions, condition indicators, acceptable visiting model and visiting management are defined. |
