The purpose of this study is to estimate the economic impacts of National Natural Recreation Forests using a regional input-output (I-O) model. Based on the regional I-O transactions tables developed by Bank of Korea (2009), National Natural Recreation Forests related sectional multipliers were derived with respect to output, income, employment, and value-added. Furthermore, surveys questioned National Natural Recreation Forests visitors in order to estimate per capita expenditures. The result shows that one National Natural Recreation Forests generated 3,380 million Won of output impact, 328 million Won of income impact, 1,017 million Won of value-added impact, and 22 full-time jobs within local effect, respectively. Also, one National Natural Recreation Forests generated 687 million Won of output impact, 85 million Won of income impact, 245 million Won of value-added impact, and 6 full-time jobs outside local effect, respectively.

This study will analyze the economic impact on villages adjacent to recreational areas in natural forests with the goal of creating a forest development plan. The area of study has been limited to the National Natural Recreation Forest and the twelve adjacent villages around the area. The collected data used a SPSS. 12.0 frequency and cross, t-test and ANOVA analysis was performed. To questions regarding increase in income and employment due to recreational areas in natural forests, there were some in all three areas that responded that it did not contribute to increases in income or employment. In all areas, there were respondents who think that these recreational areas do not help increase awareness of their nearby towns. Facilities, in order from most used to least used were tourist sites, lodgings and then food and meals. The level of satisfaction of customers in all areas was low with reasons being low quality of goods, not knowing the village(s) well, a lack of specialty items, and poor roads. In conclusion, this study presents a development plan based on the derived research results.

This research was conducted to develop pricing strategy based on understanding about customer perceived value of lodging facilities in national recreation forest. The technique known as PSM (price-sensitivity measurement) was used for analysis of price sensitivity for two kinds of lodging (log-cabin and forest-hotel) and for room sizes (4, 5, 6, 7 persons). PSM questionnaire for on-site survey were distributed to 236 customers on their visit to the six national recreation forests. The main results of this study were as follows: the price sensitivity of big size was higher then small, also, the price sensitivity of log cabin was higher then forest-hotel. Present prices were within the range of acceptable prices except prices of the use of 6 and 7 person of log-cabin. From the result of this study, it was concluded that price adjustment or price promotion strategy would effective for increase in sales and marketing strategies to enhance consumers' perceptions of value should be conducted for two room types by situations.

The purposes of this study were to evaluate the present management policy of recreation forest under competitive environment with similar types of recreation areas like national parks and to suggest the effective management strategies, using a multidimensional scaling technique. Data were collected from 1200 residents of Seoul, Pusan, Taegu, Kwangju, and Taejon sampled by two stage cluster sampling method. There were some different perceptions between Seoul residents and the others, but most of the respondents perceived recreation forests as uncrowded natural areas with reasonable use fees. The results suggested the need for developing effective marketing strategies to have distinguishing images from national parks that have competitive.

This study was conducted with the aim of comparing and analyzing the relationship between visitors' characteristics and service satisfaction, overall satisfaction and loyalty (revisit intention, recommendation intention) of recreational forests and arboretums. The main results are as follows. First, the scores given for service satisfaction, overall satisfaction, and loyalty of the users of the recreational forests were all higher than those given by the visitors to arboretums, and the service satisfaction level was relatively different from that of the overall satisfaction level or loyalty of the users. Second, the service satisfaction level of the recreational forests did not affect the overall satisfaction level and visitor loyalty, whereas the service satisfaction level of the arboretum was found to be positively correlated with the overall satisfaction level and visitor loyalty. The results are meaningful given that the visitors to recreational forests and arboretums are distributed throughout the country; thus, we confirmed that there are differences in visitor characteristics between the two types of forest recreation areas. In order to differentiate operation strategies for each type of forest recreation areas, the development of common survey items covering the entire set of services provided by forest recreation areas is needed. In addition, it would be advantageous to further develop and modularize the relevant items and conduct surveys in parallel with common survey items, as the service contents are operated selectively to function in accordance with the purpose of creating each forest recreation area.

It is necessary to build a quality-enhancing forest leisure sports facility according to values that value life quality, national forest policy. Vita Parcours (fitness trails) is found to be the activities highly convenient, so their introduction and promotion in Korea should be highly considered. field survey was necessary to explore the possibility of installing Vita Parcours. Several sites were selected, such as Asean recreational forest, Unaksan recreational forest, Yumyeongsan recreational forest, Saneum recreational forest, Jungmisan recreational forest and National center for forest therapy. At these locations, we explored the current status of forest facilities and forest trails. A total number of 31 exercise facilities has been identified and surveyed, some of which are located on the trails (2), alongside the trail (9), alongside trail boundaries (2) or represent facilities suitable for both outdoor and indoor exercise within the forest (18), all of whom provide location for 44 different exercise routines (flexibility exercises (23), endurance (12) and strength exercises (9)). Field work also included identification of forests paths, the total number of whom was 34 paths - 30 identified as trails, 2 as hiking trails, 1 as a forest path for relaxation and healing and 1 as an exploratory path. Regarding the structure and shape of these trails, 32 was straight in shape and only 2 designed as a circular forest trails. Average length of these trails was 652.2m with the highest and the lowest point altitude difference of 60m, on average. Saneum recreational forest provide the most suitable site/environment for Vita Parcours and as a result of this, Saneum recreational forest is proposed as a location to support the endeavors in promotion of these valuable forest fitness trails. Among the forest paths at this site, a forest path which has a length of 1.84km and 73.0m the highest and the lowest point altitude difference was selected as the most suitable, and may be equipped with necessary stations for exercise or obstacles. In addition, if these trails are to be introduced and welcomed by its users, we must assure that they are properly maintained.
