Mountain Destination Development

Mountain Destination Development is a strategic planning process that systematically integrates geographical, environmental, socio-cultural, and economic factors to design, manage, and promote sustainable tourism in mountainous regions, distinguishing it from general destination development by its focus on high-altitude ecosystems, terrain specificity, and the unique challenges of accessibility, seasonality, and community resilience.
