The Northeast Planning Region (NЕPR) is one of the planning regions of the Republic of Macedonia that are created with the purpose of administrative governing and statistical evidencing of spatial areas. In circumstances when a balanced regional development of the Republic of Macedonia becomes an important issue, these regions represent a solid basis for identifying the potentials which they possess. Rural policy and rural development enable possibilities for increasing the interest for inclusion of tourism as the basic accelerator for creating balanced development. Mountain areas are spatial categories that are consisted of heterogeneous possibilities for rural tourism development. Therefore, they have prioritized significance in the identification of the resource basis regarding this issue. The methodology for identifying the important potentials in the mountainous areas is defined through the application of the UNWTO’s “FAS-methodology”, with identification of the Factors, Attractors and Support services of the important resources for tourism development. In this research the FAS-methodology approach was implemented for concrete circumstances in the mountainous areas. The research in this paper refers to the determining of resources with the goal to obtain a register that should be the basis for future activities related to rural tourism development in the NЕPR.
Key words: Northeast Planning Region (NЕPR), FAS methodology, rural tourism, mountainous area
