This course examines the geomorphological effects of mass tourism in mountain regions, focusing on environmental challenges and sustainable management. Topics include ski tourism’s impact, forest roads, erosion, and landscape degradation. Students will explore strategies to reduce human pressure and manage protected areas amid rising tourism demand. Case studies provide insights into sustainable tourism practices.

When: from March 31 to April 4
