This study examines the construction and management of physical facilities in natural recreational forests that have been created after gaining an understanding of how visitors will use them. It also studies operations tailored for the use of visitors to natural recreation forests. The study presents basic data pertaining to management of natural recreation forests, analyzes the impact of current facilities on visitor satisfaction, and reveals the potential for new programs to be implemented. The independent variables in this study are facilities and program establishment/management and program utilization pertaining to the operation of natural recreation forests. The considered variables include facilities management and facilities requirements categorized by state programs. Program needs were analyzed using correlation. The state of facilities management in natural recreation forests, utilization program implementation, and demand for utilization programs were found to have a positive (+) influence on visitor satisfaction. The results of the rank regression analysis of the influence of the independent variables on visitor satisfaction decreases in the following order: state of facilities management, utilization program implementation, and demand for utilization programs. Visitors to natural recreation forests prefer recreational activities that provide a break from their normal routine, rather than the use of other aggressive utilization programs. Therefore, a higher priority should be given to ensuring appropriate provision of facilities that generate higher visitor satisfaction, as well as their stable management, compared to other utilization programs. Therefore, there are some indications that natural recreation forests of the future will benefit from the development and implementation of an essential set of utilization programs that will have a positive (+) impact on visitor satisfaction.
