The Alps have been chosen as a touristic destination for more than two centuries; however only in the last 50 years the touristic impact has raised so much that it could cause very serious and irreversible damages to the fragile mountain environment. There are different types of tourism, one is centred on hiking and exploring the mountains; this kind of touristic activity also needs spaces and constructions, such as huts, dedicated to it.

Le Alpi sono oggetto di frequentazione turistica e ricreativa da ormai più di due secoli; è però solo negli ultimi 50 anni che l’impatto dell’attività turistica è andato crescendo a dismisura e rischia di provocare danni irreversibili sui fragili ecosistemi montani. Un particolare tipo di turismo praticato sulle Alpi è quello escursionistico e alpinistico, per il quale si contano numerose strutture ricettive in alta quota. A causa delle crescenti richieste da parte dei molteplici e sempre diversi frequentatori, anche i rifugi rischiano di provocare forti impatti ambientali e di condurre a pratiche di turismo insostenibili. A questo scopo si rende necessario pianificare ottimi sistemi di gestione e di controllo della rete ricettiva in alta quota, perseguendo obiettivi di fruizione responsabile e sostenibile del territorio. Il presente caso di studio prende avvio dalla necessità del Club Alpino Italiano di allocare in modo efficiente risorse economiche per interventi di adeguamento e ammodernamento delle strutture ricettive in quota, per allinearsi ai propri obiettivi cardine di frequentazione sostenibile e protezione del territorio alpino. Si è quindi realizzato un sistema di supporto alla decisione multicriteri spaziale (MC-SDSS) per una prima area di studio, la provincia di Sondrio, con l’obiettivo iniziale di individuare criteri più efficaci per l’assegnazione dei fondi. Il MC-SDSS ha permesso di considerare sia aspetti relativi al territorio, valutando le aree a più alta attrattiva turistica, ambientale e culturale, sia aspetti relativi alle singole strutture, ad esempio lo stato di conservazione o i sistemi di gestione ambientale implementati. La costruzione del MC-SDSS ha tentato inoltre di fornire al CAI un quadro completo sulla rete ricettiva, ancora mancante, per comprendere più facilmente potenzialità e criticità del proprio patrimonio.

Abstract
The Alps have been chosen as a touristic destination for more than two centuries; however only in the last 50 years the touristic impact has raised so much that it could cause very serious and irreversible damages to the fragile mountain environment. There are different types of tourism, one is centred on hiking and exploring the mountains; this kind of touristic activity also needs spaces and constructions, such as huts, dedicated to it. Unfortunately these structures, due to the increasing needs every person has, may as well have an important environmental impact, leading to not sustainable tourism practices. Therefore, it is necessary to plan appropriate systems to manage and control all the structures in order to correctly and responsibly use the territory. This study case was carried out due to the needing of the Italian Alpine Club to efficiently allocate economic resources to make the huts and other structures adequate and modern enough to persuade sustainability and protection of the mountains territory. A Multicriteria Spatial Decision Support System (MC-SDSS) has been built for a first restricted area, which is the Sondrio province in the North of Italy, in order to find out the best criteria to allocate the funds. Thanks to the MCSDSS it is possible to consider both aspects related to the territory, evaluating the different areas on a cultural, touristic and environmental basis, and aspects related to every specific structure, regarding for example the conservation and the different environmental systems used. The MC-SDSS has also given the possibility for the Alpine Club to have a whole picture of the different structures and to understand properly the potential and the defeats of its heritage.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
