Making Mirabib Marketable: Designing an Environmentally Sustainable Campsite in Namibia’s Namib-Naukluft Park
公开可下载的内容
open in viewerIn Namibia’s Namib-Naukluft Park lies a remote granite inselberg, Mirabib, which provides shelter for seven isolated campsites. Mirabib’s remoteness makes managing the campsites difficult, while the combination of visitor activity and basic amenities leads to environmental damage. The goal of this project was to promote environmentally sustainable tourism at the Mirabib Campsites. From on-site observations, interviews with stakeholders, and studies of campsite best practices, we found that marketable campsites with well managed infrastructure improve visitor experience while decreasing environmental damage. Therefore, we recommended infrastructure designs, management plans, and marketing strategies to increase environmentally sustainable tourism at the Mirabib Campsites.
