Abstract: In the paper entitled The touristic potential of Caras-Severin County, we proposed ourselves to highlight the need for community of the tourism development, the importance in this context of the natural and anthropic resources. Translating in practice the theoretical identification we could conclude that in the development of a touristic area a special importance is awarded to the promotion of touristic attractions and facilities, meaning the touristic patrimony which is available that leads to the increase of the tourists’ number. Our research is based on the analysis of the touristic potential of the five big areas of the Caras-Severin County respectively the touristic areas: Semenic, Aurora Banatului, Clisura Dunării, Scorilo and Băile Herculane. Thus, the analysis on areas was achieved on the following elements: relief and geological structures, climate, waters and hydrographic network, vegetation, fauna, archaeological and historical vestiges, artistic and architectonic elements, which participated at the economic development of the area. On the basis of our research, we can conclude that Caras-Severin County has an excellent natural touristic potential, tourists having the possibility to admire special landscapes, to visit caves, natural reservations, springs, falls, to go fishing, swimming and canoeing on natural lakes and due to the climatic conditions they can benefit from treatment such as air therapy. Regarding the anthropic touristic potential in Caras-Severin County, this is diversified, tourists can study the habits and traditions of the region and they can visit: the railway Anina-Oravita, Mihai Eminescu Theatre in Oravita, the artesian fountain and the steam locomotives park in Resita, Decebal’s Statue and Tabula Traian on the Clisura Dunarii, barrier lakes, the ruins of some boroughs, historical and architectural monuments, monasteries, churches and museums.
