초록

본 연구는 무등산국립공원 공원관리 전략을 수립하기 위해 정상부인 서석대 일대를 찾는 탐방객을 대상으로 이용행태와 공원인식, 탐방 만족도에 미치는 요인등을 분석하였다. 분석결과 정상부를 찾는 탐방객은 광주시민이 78.1%로 가장 많았고, 산악형과 도시근교형 특성을 동시에 갖고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 탐방객 91.2%는 서석대 등의 주상절리가 무등산에서 가장 자원가치가 크다고 인식했고, 탐방객 포화에 따른 서석대의 자연 훼손에 대해 탐방객이 우려를 보였다. 이를 보전 및 복원하기 위해 일부 탐방제한이나 탐방로 우회에 대해 절반이상의 탐방객이 긍정적인 반응을 나타냈다. 전체탐방객과 인근탐방객(광주·담양·화순 거주자) 모두 원활한 탐방을 위한 시설관리가 무엇보다 공원관리 만족도에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석됐다. 인근탐방객의 경우는 이것에 더하여 무질서와 혼잡스러움을 줄이는 탐방관리가 만족도를 높이는 요인이었다. 중요도-만족도 분석에서 전체탐방객은 '편의 및 안내시설'을 개선해야 한다고 인식했다. 한편 인근탐방객은 '편의 및 안내시설' 개선과 함께 '불법 및 무질서 행위 예방'에 집중적인 관리가 필요하다고 느껴, 양측이 차이를 보였다.

This study surveyed the visitors to the Seoseokdae Peak of the Mudeungsan National Park, to analyze the factors that affected user behavior, perception of the National Park, and satisfaction with the visit and establish the strategy for the management of the Mudeungsan National Park. The analysis result showed that Gwangju residents (78.1%) accounted for the majority of the visitors to the Seoseokdae Peak and that the Mudeungsan National Park showed the attributes of both mountain type and suburb type. Most visitors (91.2%) perceived that columnar joints, including the Seoseokdae Peak, possessed the largest resource value in the Mudeungsan National Park, and the visitors showed concern over the potential damage to vegetation in the Seoseokdae Peak as the result of the overcrowded visitors. Over half of the visitors showed a positive response to the measures like partially restricted access or detour of mountain path to preserve and restore the Seoseokdae Peak. The total visitors and the regional visitors (residents of Gwangju, Damyang, and Hwasun), indicated that the facility management aimed at facilitating visitor experience affected the most on the satisfaction with park management. Moreover, the regional visitors answered that the visit management to control disorder and overcrowding would increase satisfaction. The result of the importance-satisfaction analysis showed a difference between the total visitors and the regional visitors in needed improvements as the total visitors believed that "amenities and information facilities" should be improved while the regional visitors believed that the focus should be on the "prevention of illegal and disorderly behaviors" and the "amenities and information facilities."
