Abstract

Sustainable development represents the real concept that satisfies demands and needs of the present generation, without considering the ability of future generations to compensate their own needs. Sustainable development includes economic, social, and ecological sustainability. Its concept is not against the growth, but requires an analysis of the quality of economic growth without establishing neither physical nor technical barriers to the production increase. The basic precondition for sustainable development is an adequate management of all development factors. This of course applies to the tourist activity, which is why in recent years, ecotourism is largely being mentioned. Using the example of Stara Planina, the aim of the authors and the article is to show that in practice, the environmental management can be successfully implemented through ecotourism in terms of sustainable development. Therefore, firstly we talk about sustainable development, then we mention the environmental management, and lastly, how it applies to the area of Stara Planina.
