Turismo en Motocicleta; determinantes; motivaciones turísticas; turismo de aventura; revisión sistemática de la literatura (PRISMA)Resumen
Introducción: De ser una actividad de nicho asociada a subculturas específicas, el Turismo en Motocicleta (TM) se ha convertido en los últimos años en un segmento consolidado del Turismo de Conducción, creando nuevas oportunidades para la investigación y el desarrollo empresarial dentro del sector turístico.
Objetivo: El objetivo de este estudio es ofrecer un resumen exhaustivo y estructurado de los conocimientos existentes sobre la MT, identificar las lagunas de la investigación actual y explorar futuras líneas de investigación, a saber, explicar las características, actitudes, expectativas y motivaciones de los turistas en moto, así como su impacto en la sostenibilidad de las comunidades locales a lo largo de las rutas.
Métodos: Se llevó a cabo una revisión bibliográfica sistemática (SLR) siguiendo las directrices PRISMA y, además, se utilizó el programa informático VOSviewer para identificar los conglomerados y las tendencias y cómo se relacionan entre sí.
Resultados: Los resultados sugieren la existencia de cuatro grupos temáticos principales: Turismo, Sostenibilidad y Movilidad; Motocicloturismo; Motociclismo y Determinantes; Motivaciones. Además, importantes estudios combinan la gestión de destinos, la motivación de los turistas, el impacto económico y la sostenibilidad.
Conclusión: Una dirección prometedora para futuras investigaciones es la integración de los estudios sobre infraestructuras sostenibles con el análisis conductual de las motivaciones de los motoristas, lo que señala nuevas direcciones en este campo. Además, el hecho de centrarse en el desarrollo rural y los mercados regionales ofrece oportunidades para la investigación aplicada. Este estudio es innovador en el sentido de que, hasta donde sabemos, no se ha publicado aún ningún otro SLR sobre MT, y actualiza otros trabajos anteriores sobre el tema, aportando un enfoque innovador y nuevas perspectivas a la ciencia.
