Alpine recreation and farming in Europe

Overview

Alpine life in the Saanenland and Tyrol regions continues to be defined by a blend of recreational tourism and traditional agriculture.

In addition to the established hiking and biking infrastructure in St. Anton am Arlberg, recent sporting events like the Arlberger Wadlbeisser obstacle race have drawn international participation. In this event, Florian Holzinger achieved his third consecutive victory in the men’s long-distance category, and Kerstin Greif won the women’s long-distance race. The most recent iteration of the race saw over 300 participants from 14 nations competing across 7 km and 12.5 km courses.

Tourism offerings are expanding across other Alpine areas. The Montafon region and the Kitzbühel Alps are emphasizing wellness retreats, mountain hiking, and regional culinary experiences in locations such as Schruns-Tschagguns and Hochfilzen. In the Allgäu region, hospitality focuses on family-oriented wellness and golf packages. Meanwhile, the Rauris Valley in the Hohe Tauern National Park promotes tourism centered on authentic regional life, local customs, and long-standing family traditions.

As the season shifts, regions are highlighting autumn-specific activities. In Switzerland, Saas-Fee is promoting autumn hiking through larch forests and mountain trails, utilizing the SaastalCard for lift access. In Italy, the Trentino region is highlighting its autumn landscape, culinary traditions, and wine tasting opportunities. Hochfilzen is also offering specialized bio-breakfast and sauna packages to attract seasonal visitors.

Traditional dairy farming remains a fundamental element of the landscape. In Tyrol, sites such as the Stablalm continue to exemplify the lifestyle of mountain herding and dairy farming, where daily operations are essential to maintaining the high-altitude agricultural sites.
