Abstract:
The present work is the result of wanting to improve the tourist offer of the Priorat for the public that travels in motorcycle. We propose to order, with eight motorcycle routes, this type tourism that already exists. The region is visited by motorists but there is no specific brochure for this type of public. That is why, from the Tourism Office of the Generalitat de Catalunya in Tarragona together with the master's degree in Territorial Analysis and Management: planning, governance and territorial leadership of the Rovira i Virgili University and the University of Granada, we propose a series of motorway routes combining stretches of winding roads between unique landscapes with stops, to the taste of the visitor, in the different natural, archaeological and architectural, cultural, festive and gastronomic resources that the Priorat possesses. For the elaboration and proposal of the routes, the work is structured in different parts in which we investigate the current state of mototurismo in different territorial areas, contextualize and analyse our field of study, classify the resources and the tourist offer that owns the region, propose the routes based on the defined criteria and, finally, we talk about the future of this proposal in terms of improvements and growth.
