IzvlečekPlaninske koče so v neposeljenem gorskem svetu skoraj edini lokalni vir onesnaževanja. V raziskavi smo opredelili štiri okoljske vplive planinskih koč: oskrbovanje in ravnanje z odpadki, ogrevanje in pridobivanje električne energije, oskrba z vodo in ravnanje z odpadnimi vodami ter število in obnašanje obiskovalcev. S pomočjo ankete smo ocenili okoljske vplive izbranih planinskih koč. Najbolj problematična sta velika količina odpadkov in porabljene vode, kot dobro lahko označimo oskrbovanje, kot zelo dobro ogrevanje koč in pridobivanje električne energije.Ključne besede: varstvo okolja, planinstvo, planinske koče, Kamniško-Savinjske Alpe, Slovenija ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS OF MOUNTAIN HUTS IN THE HIGH MOUNTAIN RANGE OF KAMNIK-SAVINJA ALPS AbstractMountain huts represent almost the only local source of pollution in mountain areas. We have defined four problem areas of environmental impacts of mountain huts: the supply and waste management, heating and electricity production, water supply and wastewater treatment and finally the number and behaviour of the visitors. We have evaluated environmental impacts of nine mountain huts with a questionnaire. The most problematic are the high production of waste and the quantity of water use. On the positive side is the supply of mountain huts and very positive the heat production and electricity supply.

Our research focused on the spatial distribution of amenity and disamenity attributes affecting living and working conditions in a demographically and economically dynamic rural area with good transport connections. In this article, the concept of amenity is defined as the quality(-ies)/characteristics of a rural place that make it appealing for people to reside and work in, not only in terms of quantitative aspects but also dependent on individuals’ perceptions. We tested detecting such (dis)amenity attributes in Dežela (the north-western part of the Ljubljana Basin) with two target groups – geography students and local residents, while also comparing the results obtained via classical fieldwork and through collaborative mapping. We found that the responses of geography students and local residents in the study area were generally consistent both in terms of content and location. It would be sensible to take these results into consideration during the preparation of development documents (local development strategy, tourism development strategy). Use of collaborative mapping methods, along with diligent planning and clearly defined goals, enabled us to simplify the data collection process and involve younger portions of the population, who generally are not sufficiently engaged in planning processes.
