Sustainable villages with tradition
Mountaineering villages stand for sustainable Alpine tourism that combines tradition and environmental awareness. They offer tailored services for climbers and are known for their exceptional natural and landscape quality. At the heart of the concept are mountaineering and mindful behaviour – focused on physical effort, mastering Alpine challenges, skill, risk management, the enjoyment of mountain beauty, and slowing down.
Technical infrastructure is kept to a minimum on purpose. Small, locally rooted accommodations and the preservation of mountain huts are central to the approach.
