Risk is part of the thrill of adventure traveling and adventure tourism is a fast growing segment of the industry; Yet there is a line to be drawn between risk and danger, which is why a panel discussion at the ITB Berlin focused on the reality and future of high-risk areas.
The panel referred to these areas as ‘bad lands’, which may include regions that lie in ruins, slums and even war zones. The discussion was moderated by Ajit Sing Sikand, who teaches at the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz.
