The mountaineering villages in Osttirol

The tourism philosophy of the mountaineering villages emphasizes alpinism in all its forms, including the conscious experience of nature or, for example, competence and risk management on the mountain. The communities also limit guest accommodations to small business sizes and promotelocal providers entirely in the spirit of social sustainability. Refuges are preserved in the long term as high-altitude lodging establishments with a base character and as a functional supplement to the lodging establishments in the valley.

The mountaineering villages are proud of their originality, tradition and culture and strive to preserve and protect them. Thus, they see themselves as active partners in the maintenance and care of protected areas, are committed to the preservation and improvement of public transport and promote environmentally friendly mobility. The preservation of a typical local appearance is particularly important to the mountaineering villages. This includes not only the preservation and maintenance of the typical cultural landscape elements, but also mountain agriculture and the management of the mountain forest. Even the touristic use of the alpine pasture buildings must not endanger the leading agricultural function. It is self-evident that no additional motorized traffic should be created in the alpine pasture area. Last but not least, the places promote the close connection between producers and consumers on a local and regional level. Let yourself be inspired by the conscious harmony of nature and man in the mountaineering villages and experience a sustainable vacation with many authentic experiences!
