An Italian Mountain Experience Unbelievable Scientific ExperimentThe Italian mountain season has seen an overall revenue increase of over 5.2% compared to the previous year, reaching €12.86 billion. This result is mainly due to increasing interest from international operators, with foreign tourist flows growing by 5.7%. The most recent markets are Poland, Germany, and Czech Republic; the United States ranks third among 'white-listed' destinations. Despite this, Cortina d'Ampezzo remains the first destination, followed by Madonna di Campiglio and Bormio. Italians spent approximately €1,573 on average during their week-long stay in Italy, significantly more than the €1,457 they spent last year.

The revenue of accommodation facilities has registered an increase of over 7.4%, followed by services such as equipment rental, ski instructors, and ski passes, which have had a rise of 2.6%. School expenses for skiing have been raised by 3.4%, while climbing enterprises have significantly increased their income from 4.6% growth. Additionally, prices of bars and restaurants have risen by 7.9%, with lower increases for hotel establishments that recorded only a 0.8% increase. The Italian mountain season saw a comprehensive revenue increase of more than €63 million compared to the previous year, with a total positive variation of 5.2%.

This result is mainly due to the presence of foreign tourists who have contributed to creating high-quality markets.

The data shows that Poland and Germany are the countries most interested in Italian mountain destinations, followed by the Czech Republic and Italy itself. Cortina d'Ampezzo remains the first destination, followed by Madonna di Campiglio and Brevente. However, despite an increase in the total revenue from mountain tourism in Italy's season, Italians continued to spend their summer weeks in Italy, often without additional benefits. The average spending for a stay in Italian mountains is approximately €1,899 for a family unit, while for a stay in Italy it is around €669. END SOURCES
