Abstract

The Eastern region of Kosovo, known for its rich landscapes and abundant natural resources, is an area with great potential for sustainable economic and tourism development.
This study explores the natural potential of the Eastern region of Kosovo, focusing on natural resources, landscapes and ecological attractions that can contribute to the development of tourism and the local economy. The Eastern region of Kosovo, known for its rich biodiversity, picturesque mountains and clear rivers, offers a wide range of opportunities for tourism activities such as hiking, camping and water sports. Also, forest areas and nature reserves bring special value for biodiversity conservation and sustainable tourism. This paper aims to analyze the natural assets of the region, identify challenges and opportunities for their sustainable use and propose strategies for promoting nature-based tourism as a means of economic development and well-being of the local community. The results show that with appropriate planning and management, the Eastern region of Kosovo can be transformed into an important nature-based tourism destination in the Balkans. The analysis of natural potential includes an assessment of the national parks, mountain areas, rivers and mineral resources present in this region. The study highlights the importance of preserving and sustainably managing these resources to promote sustainable economic and tourism development.
