The line graph compares the average number of people attending different areas in a European country between 1987 and 2007. Overall, the number of people who visited the lake and coast followed rising trends, while the number of people who visited the mountains remained stable. It is also clear that the number of people who visited the lake doubled but was surpassed by the coast by the end, and the coast had considerably higher figures for the entire period, while the mountains had a small increase.
Despite seeing a decline, the number of people attending the lake significantly increased for the better part of the study period. Starting at 10,000 people in 1987, the number of visitors increased until 2002 to close to 72,000 people. In later years, this figure saw a noticeable fall of 19,000, closing the period at 53,000 visitors in 2007.
The coast, on the other hand, followed the foregoing trend. The figures for coast visitors stood at around 40,000 in 1987, after which they went down to 31,000 and then increased to 70,000. From 1992 onwards, there was remarkable growth in the number of people. The mountains had a small increase, starting at 20,000 in 1987 and growing to 30,000 in 2007.
