E-JURNAL Sustainable tourism in mountainous regions
Trends of tourism in mountainous regions with their manifold economic, social
and ecological impacts are dealt with in this paper using the Austrian Alps as an
example, and evaluating ways to manage tourist activities and adapt to
man-made and natural challenges in accordance with the concept of sustainable
development. The first section of this paper deals with the differences in research
on tourism trends in Europe and North America concerning approaches and
methods used. Trends in Alpine tourism are discussed, such as developments of
spatial concentration, socio-demographic changes and new developments
in winter tourism. Then possible responses to these trends that will help
contribute to a sustainable development of tourist activities in the Alps are
illustrated, including regulations relating to spatial planning or nature
conservation as well as the management of tourist destinations. Ways of
enhancing tourist activities in economically weak areas are touched upon.
