| Abstract | U posljednjem desetljeću popularnost hodočašća u vidu godišnjeg odmora kontinuirano raste. Ljudi
u modernom svijetu imaju sve veću potrebu za mirom, avanturom, prostorom za introspekciju, što je
na putovanjima poput hodočašća i više nego osigurano. Upravo je jedno od najpopularnijih svjetskih
hodočašća Camino de Santiago tema ovog rada, odnosno način na koji Camino pridonosi turizmu
pojedinih regija kroz koje sama ruta hodočašća prolazi. Postoji više ruta Camina de Santiaga, no u
ovom radu fokus će biti na takozvanoj Francuskoj ruti, odnosno Putu sv. Jakova.
Unutar ovog rada definirani su pojmovi poput selektivnog turizma te hodočašća koje i samo spada u
vrstu selektivnog turizma. Nadalje, istražena je informiranost ispitanika o istoimenom hodočašću te
koji bi bili potencijalni motivi pojedinaca da se odluče na put poput Camina. Također, ispitani su
dojmovi, refleksije i zapažanja ispitanika koji su imali osobno iskustvo u hodanju Camina de Santiaga.
Rezultati su pokazali veliku informiranost i zainteresiranost ispitanika za istoimeno hodočašće, a
također su pokazali koji su bili pretežiti motivi ispitanika za odlazak na Camino te dali uvid u iskustva
ispitanika koji su imali prilike hodati Camino. U radu se također spominje i Camino Hrvatska te neke
od njegovih postojećih ruta.
Utvrđeno je da je Camino de Santiago izrazito popularan te da privlači hodočasnike/turiste iz cijelog
svijeta. Cilj ovog rada ispitati je koliki značaj Camino ima na turizam pojedinih regija kroz koje se
prolazi na putu do odredišta. |
