Abstract

ABSTRACT This study explores the vaguely defined concept of sustainable experiences. Specifically, it questions how perceived experience value at tourism destinations can be enhanced through sustainable experience dimensions. Although experiences and sustainable tourism are intrinsically interlinked, knowledge of sustainable experiences and how they can be included in experience design to enhance perceived value is limited. Within a lake context, local stakeholders, researchers and students were invited to actively identify and co-design sustainable experience dimensions using, among others, interviews with residents and tourists. Our findings suggest four sustainable experience dimensions: interaction with the natural environment; interaction with the cultural environment; insights and views; and lake-based activities. The study advocates for future research and management to better incorporate sustainable experience dimensions to holistically enhance tourists’ perceived experience value and destination sustainability.

探索旅游业的可持续体验

摘要本研究探讨了定义模糊的可持续体验概念。具体而言，它质疑如何通过可持续体验维度来提高旅游目的地的感知体验价值。尽管体验和可持续旅游本质上是相互关联的，但关于可持续体验的知识以及如何将其纳入体验设计以提高感知价值的知识是有限的。在湖泊背景下，邀请当地利益相关者、研究人员和学生通过采访居民和游客等方式，积极确定和共同设计可持续体验维度。我们的研究结果提出了四个可持续体验维度：与自然环境的互动；与文化环境的互动；见解和观点；以及以湖泊为基础的活动。该研究倡导未来的研究和管理更好地融入可持续体验维度，以全面提高游客的感知体验价值和目的地的可持续性。

期刊介绍： Scandinavian Journal of Hospitality and Tourism is the leading Nordic journal for hospitality and tourism research. SJHT aims at initiating and stimulating high-impact and innovative research relevant for academics and practitioners within the hospitality and tourism industries. The journal takes an interdisciplinary approach including, but not limited to geography, psychology, sociology, history, anthropology, and economics. SJHT encourages research based on a variety of methods, including both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The journal covers all types of articles relevant to the Nordic region, as well as the North Atlantic, North Sea and Baltic regions. We also welcome reviews and conceptual articles with a broader geographical scope that clearly enhance the theoretical development of the hospitality and tourism field. In addition to research articles, we welcome research notes and book reviews. Published articles are the result of anonymous reviews by at least two referees chosen by the editors for their specialist knowledge.
