 Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, doğa temelli turizm konusunda yayınlanmış çalışmaları belirlenen kriterler doğrultusunda incelemek ve bütüncül bir bakış açısıyla ele almaktır. Doğa temelli turizm anahtar kelimesi ile belirlenen kriterler doğrultusunda Scopus veri tabanından 1571 veri elde edilmiştir. Bu veriler bibliyometrik analiz tekniği ile VOSviewer programı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, doğa temelli turizmle ilgili yayınlar yıllar içinde düzenli olarak artmıştır. Ve bu yayınların artmaya devam edeceği öngörülmektedir. Bu konuda en çok yayın yapan yazar Peter Fredman olurken, en çok atıf alan yazar ise Tsung Hung Lee olarak belirlenmiştir. En çok yayının Journal of Sustainable Tourism dergisinde yayınlandığı belirlenmiştir. Amerika Birleşik Devletleri en çok yayın yapılan ülke olarak belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca Griffith Üniversitesi de en çok yayın yapan kurum olarak belirlenmiştir. Doğa temelli turizm 705 en sık kullanılan anahtar kelime olurken, bunu ekoturizm 430, turizm 292, turizm gelişimi 203 ve korunan alan 154 takip etmiştir. Bu çalışma, sadece doğa temelli turizm kavramını bibliyometrik analiz ile ele alan çalışma olduğu için literatüre bu alanda katkı sağlanmaya çalışılmıştır.
