List of tourism regions in Bavaria

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As part of the Bavarian State Development Program (LEP) from 2006, based on the information provided by the four Bavarian tourism associations ( Upper Bavaria-Munich , East Bavaria , Franconia and Allgäu / Bavarian Swabia ) and in cooperation with the Bavarian State Ministry for Economic Affairs and the Bavarian State Statistical Office, all of Bavaria Divided into tourism areas or tourism regions, the division or definitions of which have since been, most recently in 2019, but still underwent some changes. At the beginning of 2006, the LEP also subdivided the tourism industry into regions with considerable holiday tourism and regions with little holiday tourism. The regions with significant holiday tourism should enjoy special protection with regard to the expansion of traffic routes or manufacturing industries due to their value for the tourism industry. However, when the new state development program came into force in 2013, the distinction with regard to tourism was abolished again.

The main aim of this division of existing regional authorities such as rural districts and municipalities into tourist areas is to organize them individually or as a group through the persons commissioned by them and e.g. To promote partly newly created regional tourism associations and to be able to use synergy effects for this.

The names of the 36 tourism regions within the 18 regional planning associations in Bavaria refer to long-standing names for natural regions such as B. the Franconian Forest or overlap like the Altmühltal Nature Park tourism region with the Bavarian Jura and Bavarian Swabia tourism regions . In Upper Bavaria, in addition to the state capital Munich, there are also seven districts, most of which are given attractive names such as B. Alpenregion Tegernsee Schliersee advertise the district of Miesbach or appear under similar names as associations of several districts or municipalities as a tourist region.
