ABSTRACT. – The Drăgoiasa-Tulgheş Depressionary Alignment. The Tourism Potential, Arrangement and Capitalization. This study is an analytical approach regarding the main components of the tourism offer needed for outlining a special tourism personality. Within the natural tourism potential, the morphological component is predominant, represented by the Căliman, Bistricioarei, Giurgeu, Hăşmaş and Ceahlău mountains, adding the presence of mineral water springs associated with a suitable climate for treatment and rest. This, together with the biotic shell, contributes to the individualization of protected areas (reserves) of great scientific and landscape value. As for the elements of the tourism anthropogenic fund, they have a complementary character within the tourism potential and encompass historical vestiges, museums, art monuments, folk and ethnographical creations, found in most of the localities from the Drăgoiasa-Tulgheş Depressionary alignment.
Key words: mineral waters, glacial relics, development, capitalization.
