Winter sport and outdoor activities like ski touring, free riding and snowshoeing have become more widespread – in both, society and space - over the last decade. This trend leads to an increased frequentation of protected areas and their core areas in winter, causing negative impacts on the alpine fauna.

Protected areas across the Alps, together with public and private partners, have developed a number of innovative campaigns and instruments in the last years in order to prevent these effects.

The workshop „Wildlife and winter sport activities“ aims at promoting the exchange between alpine protected areas, alpine clubs and researchers on this topic and providing a stage to develop a common approach.
