Abstrakt

Celem artykułu jest analiza potencjalnych strategii adaptacyjnych dla podmiotów turystycznych działających na szlaku Rond i Bont wokół miasteczka Franschhoek w prowincji Western Cape w RPA, które umożliwiłyby zwiększenie ich odporności na przyszłe kryzysy, takie jak pandemia COVID-19. Analiza opiera się na danych zebranych podczas wywiadów bezpośrednich przeprowadzonych z udziałem 13 przedstawicieli firm działających na szlaku Rond i Bont. Informacje uzyskane od respondentów ukazują negatywne skutki ograniczeń w działalności turystycznej wprowadzonych podczas pandemii oraz wyzwania istniejące już wcześniej, które zaostrzyły kryzys lokalnej branży turystycznej wywołany przez pandemię i utrudniły proces powrotu do normalności. Na tej podstawie autorzy proponują szereg działań, które mogą pomóc w ożywieniu aktywności turystycznej na szlaku i wzmocnić odporność lokalnej branży turystycznej na przyszłe kryzysy.
