Abstract

This dataset is related to a series of surveys carried out in the Sierra Nevada National Park, specifically in the parking area of the municipality of Pampaneira, in three rounds conducted in January, March and July 2023. The main objective of these surveys was to collect relevant information on the direct and indirect costs associated with visitor travel, as well as relevant socioeconomic data and its impact on the local economy. To ensure that the sample of surveys was representative, they were conducted on alternate days between holidays and working days. In total, 528 valid surveys were collected, divided into 103 in the first round, 105 in the second round and 320 in the third round. The information obtained from these surveys provides a detailed view of how visits to the Sierra Nevada National Park impact the local economy, which is fundamental for decision making and policy planning in the park's management.
