Özet:

 Today, nature-based ecotourism activities have started to gain importance. The perception of feeling safe is very important among space preferences. In studies, it is known that the feeling of security directly affects the space preferences of the users in the advanced age group. Therefore, in terms of landscape planning, there is a need for security perception analyzes in different ecotourism activity proposal studies in natural areas. In this study; safety perception analysis of natural trekking and photo safari routes that can be used by the elderly in Kalınçam village, which was declared as a tourism village, was included. Using 7 photographs of the area, the fearanxiety of the natural areas for the elderly were analyzed. Expert evaluation was made to determine the degree of visual effectiveness of the photographs. Then, a questionnaire was applied to 100 people over the age of 55 in the virtual environment by visual quality analysis method. In particular, the level of relationship between landscape beauty and feeling safe was tried to be determined. According to the results of the Pearson Correlation test conducted in this context; it was determined that there was a statistically positive relationship between fearanxiety and plant-dominated natural landscape appearance in most of the images G1, G3, G4, G5, G6, G7, and there was a significant relationship p0.05 in the G2 image. As a result of the research, it was determined that there is a significant relationship a linear proportion between landscape beauty with dense vegetation and fearanxiety status for the elderly.

 Günümüzde doğa temelli ekoturizm aktiviteleri oldukça önem kazanmaya başlamıştır. Alan tercihleri arasında kendini güvende hissetme algısı oldukça önemlidir. Yapılan çalışmalarda ileri yaş grubundaki alan kullanıcıları için güvenlik hissinin mekân tercihlerini doğrudan etkilediği bilinmektedir. Bundan dolayı peyzaj planlama açısından doğal alanlarda değişik ekoturizm aktivite öneri çalışmalarında güvenlik algı analizlerine ihtiyaç vardır. Bu çalışmada; turizm köyü olarak ilan edilen Kalınçam köyünde ileri yaşlıların kullanabileceği doğal trekking ve foto safari yollarının güvenlik algı analizlerine yer verilmiştir. Alana ait 7 fotoğraf kullanılarak, doğal alanların ileri yaşlılar için korkukaygı durumları incelenmiştir. Fotoğrafların görsel etkinlik derecesinin belirlenmesi için uzman değerlendirilmesi yapılmıştır. Daha sonra 55 yaş üstü sanal ortamda 100 kişiye görsel kalite analiz yöntemiyle anket uygulanmıştır. Özellikle manzara güzelliği ile güvende hissetme arasındaki ilişki düzeyi belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Bu kapsamda yapılan Pearson Korelasyon testi sonuçlarına göre; görüntülerin büyük bölümünde G1, G3, G4, G5, G6, G7 korkukaygı durumu ve bitki ağırlıklı doğal peyzaj görünümü arasında istatistiki olarak pozitif bir ilişki olduğu, G2 görüntüsünde ise önemli bir ilişki olduğu p0.05 olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda ileri yaşlılar için yoğun bitkiye sahip manzara güzelliği ile korkukaygı durumu arasında önemli bir ilişki olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
