Analysis of the project EUROVELO as the sustainable form of tourism in the Czech Republic 2004 - 2014
Starý, Filip ; Štípek, Vladimír (advisor) ; Zeman, Martin (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with potential and effectiveness of long-distance cycling routes EuroVelo in the Czech Republic. The thesis is based on hypothesis of sustainability of the project. For the sustainability is necessary concurrence of three functions -- sociocultural, environmental and economical. The set hypothesis is considered from multiple views. Firstly SWOT analysis was made -- this analysis shows the most important internal and external factors of project. Moreover this analysis confirms sociocultural and environmental sustainability of project. Then cost-benefit analysis was carried out. This cost-benefit analysis creates the required minimum number of use of cycling routes EuroVelo per year (with given opportunity costs) so that the project will be sustainable economically. With the highest simulated opportunity costs (20%) the minimum number of usage per year must be 3,08 million. Whereas EuroVelo routes connect the most attractive cycling trails in the Czech Republic, we can consider this number of use as realistic. The main benefit of the thesis is complex analysis of conditions and impacts of the project EuroVelo in the Czech Republic based on partial methods and calculations.
