Winter sport tourism is struggling with overcapacity. Demand is stagnating. Nevertheless expansion plans worth billions are being drawn up.

It also presents the expansion plans in detail and then leads to a catalogue of improvement measures. The authors make it clear that sustainable tourism planning is necessary for today's ski tourism.
