Factors affecting the economic impact for managing cycling cultural tourism route

A positive correlation between cycling cultural tourism management and economic benefits for local communities, particularly low-income families, was identified at Ban Chiang. The study revealed that legal frameworks, social context, and route characteristics significantly influence economic outcomes such as well-being and income growth. Using structural equation modeling (SEM) on data from 433 visitors, the research demonstrated that these factors directly and indirectly contribute to enhanced economic impacts. This finding underscores the potential for sustainable tourism strategies to foster economic development in heritage sites.
