Buaidh a' choròna-bhìorais air turasachd

Buaidh a' choròna-bhìorais air turasachd
Le buaidh a' choròna-bhìorais fhathast ga fhaireachdainn ann an saoghal na turasachd, tha dùil gum bi barrachd dhaoine a-nise a' co-dhùnadh saor-làithean a ghabhail ann an Alba fhèin. Le barrachd dhaoine ge-tà, tha barrachd cuideam ga chuir air seirbhisean agus goireasan campachaidh is bhanaichean campachaidh agus tha sin ag adhbhrachadh thrioblaidean. Tha Alasdair MacIllinnein a' toirt sùil air dè tha ga dhèanamh gus trioblaidean dha leithid a sheachnadh am-bliadhna, agus san àm ri teachd. Tha cuid a' cur taic ris an t-siostam 'Aires', lìonra de làraich airson bhanaichean campachaidh san Fhraing, mar fhreagairt, ach tha diofar bheachdan ann air dè cho freagarrach 's a tha leithid seo dhan Ghàidhealtachd.

With higher numbers of people however, there are increasing pressures on the camping and motorhome infrastructure, which has been causing issues. Alasdair MacLennan takes a look at what is being done in the Highlands to alleviate these issues for this year, and years to come. One proposed solution is to adopt the 'Aires' system, a network of motorhome sites already established in France, but some question whether this is suitable for the Highlands.
