“…In relation to these three aspects, several authors have highlighted the relevance to sustainability of the type of companies in charge of managing tourism resources and the way they present their offer. Thus, Polo-Peña et al (2015) addressed the funding and resources available to these companies, Boys et al (2017) conducted an innovative study on the importance of geolocation for this type of tourism, Martins et al (2014) analysed the specificities of tourism in islands such as Madeira, Kastenholz (2004) and Komppula (2014) emphasized the importance of management work, Marzo-Navarro et al (2017) emphasized the importance of cooperation among stakeholders, and others, such as Carlsen et al (2001), Ferrari et al (2010, and Kallmuenzer et al (2017), addressed the role of family businesses or small and medium firms.…”

Rural tourism is currently one of the most dynamic segments of tourism demand, and rural accommodation is one of the accommodation choices most in demand. Based on various documentary sources, the goal of this article was to analyse aspects related to the qualitative evolution of this activity that have led to the rapid growth of this type of accommodation. Using a purpose-built database generated from the information obtained from our own survey, which was developed following other studies on this topic, we applied a partial least squares model to analyse the impacts on the environment in terms of the offer and their relationship with environmental management. The results show that the attitude of rural establishment managers has a decisive influence on the behaviour of their clients regarding ecological respect and a positive impact on water and energy consumption.

“…Approaches such as integrated rural tourism [22] and community-led tourism [23] have been proposed to empower or center the local community in planning and managing tourism development to integrate cultures sustainably and in parallel with territory development, culture inheritance, and ecology conservation [24,25]. Empowering local communities has become another silver bullet and differs from managing competing values among diverse stakeholders in tourism development.…”

Rural tourism plays an increasing role in maintaining sustainable rural development. In-11 tegrating culture into rural tourism is multifaceted. Local communities have often been regarded as 12 homogeneous, and different voices within them are selectively presented or re-interpreted by pow-13 ers. A better understanding of how and why cultures are integrated into rural tourism is urgently 14 needed. This paper aims to investigate (1) the aims and motives of tourism managers to integrate 15 cultural concepts into rural tourism; (2) who has participated in the cultural integration process; and 16 (3) how cultures have been integrated into rural tourism. Based on a scoping literature review, we 17 found that cultures could add more attractions, such as historical heritage, artwork, cultural land-18 scape, customs, food, and language, to the natural landscape and bring more tourists to rural areas. 19 However, integrating cultures into rural tourism is not always successful. Conflicts of interest 20 among different stakeholders are also often found. Some of the worst cases of cultural integration 21 have even destroyed the original natural landscape and local cultures. While cultural integration is 22 complicated, injustice and perverse effects do not have to be a consequence of integrating cultures 23 into rural tourism. Multi-way communication among tourism providers, managers, and consumers 24 can mitigate disruptive outcomes and unlock positive social outcomes.

“…El aprovechamiento de los recursos naturales y culturales del territorio para el desarrollo de actividades turísticas requiere la concertación público-privado, a nivel local/regional (Marzo-Navarro et al, 2017). La investigación determina que los esfuerzos invertidos y los recursos utilizados, tanto propios como externos al territorio, deben ser optimizados al máximo para la generación de productos turísticos con el propósito de promover la reactivación de la economía y la dinamización de una sociedad a través del turismo (Toselli, 2019).…”

La situación económica a la que se enfrentan las parroquias rurales del Ecuador es preocupante debido a la escasa formulación de proyectos que contribuyan a crear oportunidades para mejorar las condiciones de vida de la población. En este sentido, el turismo puede constituirse en una alternativa de generación de empleo y crecimiento económico. El presente estudio tiene como objetivo determinar la potencialidad turística de la parroquia Seis de Julio de Cuellaje del cantón Cotacachi, provincia de Imbabura. Para el efecto, se empleó la metodología de jerarquización de atractivos y generación de espacios turísticos del Ministerio de Turismo del Ecuador 2018 y se adaptó la fórmula de evaluación multicriterio, misma que es igual a la división del criterio alcanzado por el atractivo sobre la ponderación estándar de los criterios de valoración. Se analizaron 20 atractivos turísticos, tres corresponden a la jerarquía II y 17 son de jerarquía I. Los criterios: estado de conservación e integración sitio/entorno, accesibilidad y conectividad obtuvieron mayor puntuación, sin embargo, su potencialidad es media. La puntuación de los siete criterios restantes es deficiente, por lo que se puede concluir que el nivel de potencialidad turística del territorio es bajo. Los actores públicos, privados y comunitarios deben trabajar mancomunadamente para mejorar las condiciones que actualmente desfavorecen al territorio como destino turístico emergente.
