Abstract

The article analyzes the attractiveness of the recreational territories of Transcarpathian region in terms of the development of recreational and tourist infrastructure, based on the analysis of socio-economic indicators using the methodology of fuzzy logic. It is noted that the Transcarpathian region is an important tourist region of both Western Ukraine and Central Europe as a whole. The recreation zones of Transcarpathia have been systematized according to the prospect of development of recreational and tourist infrastructure. It is revealed the influence of such indicators on the prospects of development of recreational and tourist infrastructure as visitation of recreational territories by tourists, the volume of provided recreational and tourist services, the density of roads, the number of persons not employed, average monthly salary of full-time employees. Strengths and weaknesses of each administrative district of the region in relation to the development of recreational and tourist infrastructure are outlined.

The administrative districts as a whole are ranked. It is established that the most promising recreational areas for the development of recreational and tourist infrastructure are Mukachevo, Berehiv and Svalyava. These territories, in addition to favorable socio-economic factors, also have unique recreational and tourist resources: mineral and thermal waters of various types, castles, palaces, architectural ensembles of city centers. Khust, Rakhiv and Mizhhirya recreation areas are developing at a significant rate. In Uzhgorod, however, there is a phenomenon of excessive supply of recreational and tourist services. The development’ problems of the recreational sphere of the Transcarpathian region are highlighted, in particular, the unsatisfactory condition of the road infrastructure, as well as the uneven socio-economic development of the region as a whole. Priority tasks of further infrastructural development of the Transcarpathian region are the socio-economic status of the administrative districts of the region, as well as study the problem of boundary load on natural and anthropogenic complexes of the region in order to achieve balanced development of territories.
