The aim of this paper is to estimate the recreational use value of a protected area in the south of Spain, Sierra de Maria-Los Vélez Natural Park in Almeria, using the zonal travel cost method. The estimated consumer surplus ranges from € 7.67 to € 13.29 per person, according to the proposed scenario taking into account travel time as a cost or as an enjoyment. Finally, some conclusions are presented, as well as some strategies to promote the recreational use of the Park and to improve its future management.
