Özet:

In recent years, the protection of biodiversity, the increase in sustainability awareness and the demand for nature have brought the concept of ecotourism to the forefront. In this study, it is aimed to determine the areas suitable for ecotourism within the borders of Çanakkale province by using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS). In order to determine the areas suitable for ecotourism, 13 criteria and restricted areas were selected according to the literature review and expert opinions. The criteria used in the study are slope, height, aspect, land use, land use capability, proximity to roads, proximity to residential, proximity to water resources, proximity to streams, proximity to fault lines, geology, temperature and precipitation analyses. The restricted areas are protected areas, forest and pasture borders, agricultural basins and areas subject to special laws. The significance scores of the pairwise comparisons of the criteria were scored according to the scale between 1-9 developed by Saaty (1987). The obtained values were processed into the attribute tables of thematic maps and reclassified, and the weighted superimposition method was applied to the raster data. Then, the restricted areas were combined with the areas that were not suitable for ecotourism. The study shows that 65.09% of Çanakkale consists of areas that are not suitable for ecotourism, 20.19% consists of medium suitable areas, and 14.71% consists of very suitable areas. It is seen that very suitable areas are concentrated around water resources, have intense cultural and natural attractions, and do not have a negative impact on ecotourism in terms of environmental and socioeconomic aspects. In line with these area distributions obtained, suggestions for sustainable ecotourism planning were presented by taking into account the socioeconomic structure of the region in the plans to be made in very suitable areas.
