Carinthia University of Applied Sciences Sustainable Tourism Development in the Alps-Adriatic Region Final : Report with Guidelines Based on the Analysis Results The report “Sustainable Tourism Development in the Alps‑Adriatic Region – Final Report with Guidelines Based on the Analysis Results” (Carinthia University of Applied Sciences; DOI: 10.71911/itat46-007_wp2, 2026) consolidates analyses and guidelines for sustainable tourism development across the Alps‑Adriatic region. It includes inventories of hiking and cycling offers and protected‑area regulations in the cross‑border area between Dobratsch Nature Park (AT) and the Parco naturale delle Prealpi Giulie (IT), alongside the evaluation of outdoor and fitness app data (e.g., Komoot, Outdooractive). The goal is to enable data‑driven visitor‑flow management that relieves overcrowded hot spots and strengthens lesser‑visited areas through coordinated, cross‑border cooperation among nature parks and tourism stakeholders. en TEXT report Bericht Rapporto Text Bericht Text report Documento PDF Rapporto Sustainable tourism Alps‑Adriatic Region Cross‑border visitor management Visitor counting Elisabeth Wiegele Lilia Schmalzl Julian Greiler Sabrina Muscolino Mara Thiene Cristiano Franceschini Vanessa Jreissaty Nicola Ceschia Stefano Santi Alessandro Benzoni Cristina Comuzzo Robert Heuberger Ines Schäfer
