SPECIAL ISSUE CALL FOR PAPERS
OUTDOOR RECREATION
The diversity of activities carried out in leisure time brings about studies on recreation in different branches of science. Although these studies are mainly conducted in departments of sports sciences and tourism faculties in our country, the unique characteristics of the field encourage interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research. Leisure activities play an important role in the healthy lifestyles of individuals and societies. Especially after the effects caused by the Covid-19 virus, the importance of leisure activities conducted outdoor has been re-emphasized. In this context, Anatolia: Journal of Tourism Research will publish a special issue at the end of 2024 focusing on research related to the impact of outdoor recreation on individuals' well-being and health.
