By joining forces, we face global challenges and support sustainable tourism in the Alps.
Welcome to AlpNet!
AlpNet is an association of nine leading tourism organisations from Switzerland, Italy, Germany and Austria, established to promote and strengthen European Alpine tourism through cross-border cooperation and shared expertise.
With 154,9 million overnight stays, AlpNet members account for one in every three overnight stays in the Alpine region.
Vision & Mission
With the founding of AlpNet, nine of the leading tourist organisations in the Alps have decided to confront the global challenges together, and in so doing to strengthen alpine tourism in all its facets. It’s all about further developing and boosting sustainable Alpine tourism.
The Alpine Manifesto
Our ten guiding principles for a respectful approach to the Alpine environment
The ten guiding principles of the Alpine Manifesto were developed in close collaboration by the nine regions of the AlpNet network. They provide clear, practical guidance for a conscious and sustainable experience of the alpine region. Central to these principles are the protection of sensitive natural and cultural areas, the strengthening of regional communities, and the responsibility towards future generations – ensuring that the Alps remain a unique place for living and recreation tomorrow as well.
The principles invite travelers to explore with mindfulness and respect – from preserving biodiversity and valuing local traditions to making conscious choices for sustainable accommodations, regional products, and environmentally friendly mobility. By following these guidelines, you actively contribute to preserving the Alps – while also opening yourself up to profound, authentic experiences in one of Europe’s most captivating natural landscapes.
Let’s discover the Alps with respect, appreciation, and a clear awareness of our shared responsibility.
Note: The Alpine Manifesto is an open-source initiative and can be actively used by businesses and hosts to raise guests’ awareness about responsible interaction with the alpine nature and culture.
