Sustainability in mountain sports: Brixental sets new standards!

The first "Awareness Event" of the Brixental tourism association in Kirchberg took place under the inspiring motto "In the sign of sustainable outdoor sports". Well -known speakers were involved who treated central issues such as sustainability and environmental protection in alpine space. Thilo Bohatsch from Saac (Snow & Alpine Awarness Camps), who presented the Interreg project AAC, gave the start for the event. This project aims to address alpine dangers and raise awareness of the sensitive nature, such as "https://www.meinbezirk.at/kitzbuehel/c-lokales/das-brixental-lud-aac-aac-a--event_a72864" meinbezirk.at reported.

Another important highlight was the lecture by Univ.-Prof. Mike Peters from the University of Innsbruck, who presented the results of a comprehensive study on sustainable outdoor sports. Verena Retter, expert of NAPOI, impressed the participants with their knowledge of the protection of flora and fauna. The marketing manager of TVB Brixental, Bettina Hechenberger, explained innovative mobility projects, including the "Guest card" initiative. The crowning glory of the event was the local forester and Jägermeister Franz Heim with his lecture on the “Naturraum Brixental” network.

The AAC project goes beyond awareness event and sets new standards for sustainable and digitally supported outdoor sports. In this cross -border project, which promotes cooperation between Austrian and Bavarian partners, innovative approaches to sensitization and qualification in the field of outdoor sports are developed. The aim is to improve both the security of the athletes and environmental protection and avoid conflicts of use. The initiative reacts to the challenges of a growing outdoor sports trend, such as kaunertal.com reported.
