THE TOURISM POTENTIAL OF VEGETATION WITHIN MĂCIN MOUNTAINS (DOBROGEA, ROMANIA)

Journal Title: Geographia Napocensis - Year 2012, Vol 0, Issue 1

Abstract

Măcin Mountains are situated in the North – Western part of Dobrogea Plateau (South – West of Romania) between Danube River and Black Sea. They overlap on the oldest geological formations from our country, being resulted in Hercynic and Kimmeric orogenesis. In terms of lithology, Măcin Mountains are one of the most representative in our country due to their wide petrographical variety and implicitly due to their morphological diversity. In the same time, Macin Mountains are unique and representative at the national and international level, due o their biogeographical specificity conferred by the interference between of the Central – European and Caucasian species, Mediterranean, Balkan and Pontic species as well as Asian species. The uniqueness features and the international values of Măcin Mountains flora has led to the establishment, in 2000, of the homonymous National Park. The purpose of this study is to identify and assess those vegetal associations with touristic potential. We also aim to analyze the existing touristic exploitation of the Măcin Mountains biodiversity.
