Abstract

Rural tourism is experiencing rapid growth, offering travelers the opportunity to immerse themselves in unique cultural and environmental experiences while generating substantial economic benefits for local communities. Additionally, it presents health risks to local communities and visitors alike and can lead to broader socioeconomic issues, such as the degradation of the tourism appeal of these areas. This chapter will provide a comprehensive analysis of the challenges and consequences associated with improper waste disposal in rural tourism. By addressing this critical issue, the chapter seeks to contribute to the sustainable development of rural tourism and the preservation of the natural and cultural heritage of rural areas. Through an in-depth examination of the current practices and proposing actionable solutions, this chapter aims to foster a broader discussion on sustainable rural tourism and environmental conservation, ensuring that rural tourism can thrive without compromising the integrity of the rural environment and communities.
