Tourism Travel

Leisure and recreational travel take place over long and short distances and use diverse modes: buses, planes, trains, automobiles and bikes. Despite the importance of tourism travel to our economy and quality of life, research is lacking in this field. UVM seeks to contribute innovative data — not only to enrich Vermont's tourism economy, but also to advance policies that minimize the environmental consequences of our leisure travel.
