Sažetak
A well preserved natural environment, a high level of biodiversity and a unique mosaic landscape structure in Slovenia has led to a relatively high percentage of protected areas, areas of Natura 2000, as well as ecologically important areas. Protected areas are mainly recognized as development restriction and rarely as development opportunity, although they are more a coincidental result of past spatial planning and nature preservation. The paper presents two smaller study areas –a natural monument and a landscape park. The two cases show the present activation of natural values and the rate of inclusion of protected area potential into endogen regional development. The sustainable regional development with activation of various protected area’s potentials is still at the beginning and will only be developing through the efficient management system as well as with encouragement of social capital and human resources development.
