| Abstract [eng] |
There are excluded five recreational zones in Zemaitija National Park territory (21 720 ha size). The research of digression was made in four recreational zones of forests in National Park (Plateliai, Paežerės Rudaičiai, Paplatelė, Pailgis – all 373 ha). The recreational digression was different in all those zones. Digression mostly is depended on recreational intensity and lessees on resistances of nature complex. Research have showed that 33% of forests in recreational zone are not disturbed (digression degree was 0). 36 % was softly depressed (I degree digression), 16% - average depressed (II degree digression) and 15% strong depressed (III degree digression). Paplatele recreational zone was the most depressed territory, Pailgis the least one. Total 1,28 ha area of III degree digression was measured in all four zones. The III degree digression was also found in Šeire nature path. To reduce recreational digression the stream of visitors should be turned to other recreational sites like walking trails, short term feasts in such areas should be refused; resistance of such nature complexes should be increased. To protect the tree roots from disturbing wooden paths should be established on some part of nature path. |
