Qualitative and Quantitative Assessment of Recreational Development: The Case of Szachty Park in Poznań, Poland
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Given the growing demand for active leisure, and consequently, the increasing emphasis placed on recreation, the proper management of recreational facilities and development is becoming particularly important. The authors propose a three-stage assessment of recreational infrastructure, which takes into account both qualitative and quantitative aspects. The proposed approach can be a useful tool for determining directions of development of recreational facilities in areas with varied characteristics, and can also help create a decision-making framework regarding changes in recreational development in a given area. By analysing strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats related to the current state of recreational development, as well as local environmental and planning conditions, it is possible to identify aspects that require improvement or modification. The methodological assumptions described in the article were applied to assess the recreational development of Szachty Park in Poznań.
