On peak days, there are more than 13000 visitors and i put them on one second and then when we met them is our 1st time here. Its such a famous place. You can buy held by the amount of people its packed to the people that do this incredible. Thats a take a look. The view speaks for itself. Ive let me imagine about all the meet the person on the goal of mine story, unesco World Heritage site is and and so theyre very beautiful, but the burden on nature and the local population has reached a tipping point. Well then if i give you this mass, if it exceeds a certain level, of course, tolerance goes down. And the people who live hearings or whos doing directly profit from the whole thing, some done. So you dont just criticize it funding this makes lots of lead even started to use it on your finding us to have the the a typical morning in high season the entrance to the 8 kilometers long wrote to make bias. These busy belgian guide abbey, in china. Is a member of the local traffic commission, access to the lake, its been restricted and he wants to see for himself how its working. Hard to say fellows. Not much going on today. Yesterday was busy and the day before yesterday too. I noticed the day before yesterday we were full by 9 am. 9 just about the life is going well. Theyre less nervous this evening and this ones better than last night. As bites. Have you seen the still modifies. Its one of more or less for done. Everything is usually free is by half past night. Come on the depending on how it empties, or at least her own guest can reserve Parking Spaces and driving tabs. So its not about keeping people lives. Its about organizing things and the valley and such. We hook it up. First and foremost, i understand the local, still have a decent life is late and that the to receive do common reason to be called find it to be more or less just as the imagined reason. 6 of us on the 4th cause is one of the 1st municipalities in south to your to introduce a control system like this one for visitors. The reason, almost the permanent traffic jams during the high season and over parked meadows. Now, drivers without a reservation are directed to a make shift parking lot with they can try to find a space online. The move on the need to weve never been there before. And i wanted to take my daughter on a short height of a small mountain and just have a relaxing day. But now its getting a bit complicated. Is it completely up now . Yeah. We have to book an additional shuttle for 10 years. The person to get to the lake is that okay . Yeah, no samsung, id say they know how to make their money. Its also possible to take a bus. It runs every half hour from the nearby train stations in one well. So and toby, uncle, but very few people do at the end of the valley lives, the famous lake bias for years. This Natural Beauty is ranked among instagrams, top hotspots, photo circulate all over social media. Otherwise its a 1000 to roll these quite well known to so we thought we should take a vacation here here. Well, Market Building is good. This is the best of luck. I think this is the best for you, individually, with the blue link or z or in the background. You can see the dolan, i see that, i mean its the perfect view. This is the sector and view the. This is the perfect tube in our pre rating shields. Its less crowded than i expected, the still a lot of face to move, so im totally fine with it. We noise from uh into gram and google and youtube. And then we come from netherlands to come here from here. And yeah, we use a car, us to come here for 12 hours. The price of each diner grew up here as a professional mountain guide depends on tourism. But preserving this nature is crucial to come to think that it is fitting to use the term flooded far may be excluded to characterize the situation on the ground. When speaking unto the resume has developed continuously in other well known areas of the world to lease or even in starts to roll in general, some of the situations youre on, you know, some really good exponentially in just a few years. It locks weve had accordingly, a competitor challenges that come with it and also in terms of transport because we were not prepared for such a large number of visitors. One iron, the having shy new himself contributed to the tourism explosion, albeit in directly when he acted as a stunt man in a popular tv series. The, when the hot this, we completely underestimated the impact i did, especially in the office and im a bit to blame for the whole thing that the board was filmed here. And then a lot of vitality into his came here in the 1st few years afterwards. He had to comment for an even more picture perfect backdrop. The series transplanted the 3 peaks the fairly the next morning. Having steiner is preparing for a mountain tour. Hes taking 2 women from the area on a true nature experience. Even in this towards the area. We were allowed to come along with our camera in addition to the early hour, the bad weather is contributing to the fact that its quiet this morning actually. But i guess so this reading from to suppose the passover echo to the end, it will get better with no handed out with. And youll take us down to the cool hike you might not find on your own current. Wait, lets say, the whole book, the leak is this areas of this hot spot, and im just what most curious come to see. I thought you can see it, most of them for glossing is all of us. So for this is also the starting point for a good number of mountain timbers, feel it back to you and dont get having chooses one of his special wild trails quite literally off the beaten path, leaving your phones to be he lives on tourism, of course. And thats also important now, some of the, some of that are thousands of people here every day. Know what i think nature will suffer further. If man, more infrastructure is built for 2 reasons. He fears that more tourism could scare off his target market. Hikers and mountaineers looking to experience pristine nature up close. We wanted to understand the situation better. So we set out on a trip through the golden lights and almost immediately come to a stop. The access road to the 3 peaks was already close that morning. Due to overcrowding, the mountain could only be reached on foot or by bus Unesco Commission to study in 2018 to explore conditions here. The study looked at individual hotspots and determine the limits of their carrying capacity. In other words, how many tourists can a place tolerate . The study found that lake bias could tolerate 2000 visitors per day. But on an average day in august, this limit was exceeded 6 fold. And on peak days of 2018, more than 17000 people crowded here. The prox municipality aims to have a maximum of 5000 people at the lake at any one time. Measures like these traffic controls are meant to help, but do they actually work or do restrictions on cars lead to even more Traffic Congestion the shifting the problem elsewhere. A Traditional Village in south t roll here, there were almost 6000 beds for guest and 3360 residents. The hotel xander is located to illinois to block district. This was once a place where people stopped to change horses on the way to venice. To the, the hotel with 130 beds is among the best that santa runs this hotel, and one of his daughters works at the reception. Its a family business. Zonta is also a politician and Vice President of the tourist board. Over the past 50 years, entrepreneurs like him turned what was once a farming region into the tours destination. It is today, celebrities flock here did schema one of the above. Now lets go to the pub this one, the 5 that was wonderful spot when we brought the Christmas Tree to rome had been the hobby, but then i played soccer with brightener, facebook dispute, etc. Buyer. And was my guest at the time. The if to buy back and buy were to us to the of, to pick about about as it was just extraordinary with these people, with this light coming by the need to be met. The 4 star hotel is fully booked with good, but all guests are out and about enjoying the beautiful local nature. Habit, santa is constantly working on new ideas. The radius, the wellness area needs a lot of space so that people dont feel crowded in any way. With us, they need a lot of reading room safety for violence and by opening up to nature, the, this breathing room is twice as big. What is there is the spaciousness. Somebodys. Yeah. Its not just about the space. Its about the nature you know, to see. However, he needs enough pain guests to sustain this high level of comfort and the guests need beds. This could be a sticking point. As the province of south t roll instituted a bed freeze design to limit the number of hotel beds in the region. The bed freeze came about as part of the regions tourism 2030 plus development concept. The brainchild of counselor on showed up team managers, tourism in south t roll. He explains that new beds can only be added when old ones are lost. The mouse number is probably a measure is radical. He says upper limit will have an effect, but we have to, it is already having an effect thats gone. And that means we have to reorient ourselves. Im, im loc. The growth rate will be the same, will no longer be possible. Obviously, if memory makes no sense and as counter productive and we have cuz its not only the Healthy Development of new or isnt this important to waste most the approval of the local population right now. You need to, to provide the number of overnighted stays in south toodle has risen by some 40 percent. And the last 30 years from around 23000000 to more than 33000000 the the number of hotel beds remained comparatively stable in the same period. But there was been a shift from smaller operations to the luxury resorts. Renowned Alpine Research van a bad thing. Questions the effectiveness of restrictions that focus primarily on the number of beds the pit stop lose. The bed freeze does not sold a whole host of problems in tourism. I told you hom, the like the fact that overnight guests and so 2 rules are staying for short term shorter period often does. The Small Businesses are dying. I swear, namely the 23. 00 star hotels from by locals, which tend to be down to earth and operate relatively sustainable if you are that you from the off. I just meanwhile, the largest arm is equal to 4 or 5 star hotels. You make them down the hotel. These are all negative developments that are not influenced. Told by the med freeze, i think stopped the ball detours. And theres also booming, and its still the effect to the tells us most the in other words, what at the fed freeze would be one good measure to store, but it would have to be followed by other measures. I mean, thats not happening for me to forward. When dust is doc ms to see the owner of the for star hotels on to is not overly worried. That will be does somebody be a moment on i believe that this is certainly a new challenge yourself to role at the moment youre seeing it out if what it is youre seeing a lot of political zigzags and patients the consecutive no how by solve it. So i think it will resolve itself in the end well discuss, i believe the economy, it can be 50 or the managed lights, and the economy will develop on its own and say, make the best of this situation on the some of these type. Its this out and thats why i believe this is much ado about nothing. Thats me. I guess i used to be the, by the mountain guide of in china and the to hikers have now reached open terrain. The rain has led up and theres no sign of the crowd down by the lake, them and bus. No hyundai is monday if you know your way around the doesnt take long to get to a place. There are fewer people who as close as locals. We especially like it if we can avoid the crowds with even inflect season, so well end up. I dont know if that makes the time, not me by me. Itll stay on the path for a while. I get along the trail them and then branch off up on the crossover with those to pass along the grassy ridge, only to the claiming route in china wants to make things even more exciting today with a special climbing round on the way to the summit solitude and tranquility, the contrast of the crowds, 500 meters below, and lake providers couldnt be greater go visual and they think where it is gushing it right into the area is extremely popular with terrific song please. Im probably the mountaineer who really wants to get items in nature, does their research or the need of this perhaps the here that there are so many people here and then think to themselves if you them, and im not going there from engineering anymore on the my income tax time from my point of view, this is almost cushion quieter. Up here on the 19th to the rocky summit route opens onto a spectacular view. So he put it a hex facing, facing insignificant island full had looked on, but then there was ringing again. And a thunderstorm, the wind and weather conditions make further ascent impossible. Natural World Heritage of clothes. But what does receiving the unesco designation actually signify . The scene that i aint this, the meeting has gone a little sideways up this can i have the feeling that a lot more people are coming here because of it to a farm though it takes a minute. Well that means is more people drive their cars over the passes and dont really stop to look at the shower experience by hiking and leaving in the past by the unesco idea is we have some quite caught on this. Go get on k, its nick guns that youve worked on in the shifting scenery. A visit to lake cut pizza, not far from bows on. This beautiful attraction has been off limits for years. That was the only way to protect it. This thing to mountain leak in the door, the lights can only be viewed like an exhibition in an open air museum. Molina phone has brought her family here today for years now, the architect has been campaigning to protect the region and its nature from over development. Cheese and municipal council, their member of the alpine club and is passionate about the locals. Heritage conservation in recent years, the area around the lake cutty to has repeatedly been the site of conflicts over proposals for a new cable car and other development project. Of thousands of us was somehow amazed at what has happened in recent years in terms of new building and conversions and expansions. Why did this so can i say i am surprised at how nature has to be subordinate. It will be someone told them were still have this feeling that i have to do something about it wrong because if i remain silent, good, i dont feel good of any. Uh, but when i point out that not everything thats going on is okay. So, so the feels like im doing the right thing really, this is the least to give is you cant always because of everything on this. So humans today, malayna bona plans to meet representatives of the most important nature and Landscape Conservation organizations in south t roll deal. Adopt a manifesto for the protection of the during the nights. Then theyll present this manifesto to lawmakers in the province. This the maam, your football and this the mouth of the morning we installed and the more we destroy are very foundation. Navigate that. And psychologically, i think were losing so much because were just focused on my or may how can we build or stand out more from the center of attention, even more glass compete even more with other ski resort, these other mountain resort. I just conclusions. Thanks. Pure competitive thinking, and i think thats good for destroying peoples property, ruins, tourism, and its not good for people. I think that i think whats new facilities at to response attract ever bigger crowds. The latest project planned for the mountain town, a 7 story glass tower. The plan was met with great musicians from Nature Conservation associations and the unesco World Heritage foundation. The ideas now being resolved by the prominence of the south detroit. But science of construction work can still be seen that every turn, the, the activists work for different nature and heritage protection associations. Theyve chosen the co know who to, thats the place to compose their statement. It stands under the landmark rosen gotten Mountain Range part of a landscape that is being more and more heavily developed in a push for more tourism. The group talks about how to stop the development and how to reach as many people as possible. Theres an awful, they are simply staging our landscape once it doesnt need staging, they kind of has to be done. So williams think its not enough for business. So the important thing is that this is not just a gut feeling. Making studies proven eating poll every survey shows that people come here because of the landscape because of the authenticity date because of the mountain valley, were basically rooting the basis of our living quality of life on the one hand and tourism on the other ones. The names permutations on the sites i phone so they also discussed the new tourism concept, which they dont think will make much difference in them. But the other state papers always talk about the importance of nature and Landscape Conservation and environmental protection. Netflix, all that, any, any problems are buried in the details. I mean, if it came to legislation and certain regulations when it comes to implementation, and the problem is then these big ideas no longer apply. Setting an issue now in the last couple of decades, especially economic interests have gained the upper hand. The development of the alps is one direct result and something the sell to roll the an alpine conservationist want to put a stop to this is i see less money says disease, this does my, my, the name of the manifesto is to wake up the population or the iris di since, although some people are already turned into these discussions since he believes to these cities. But there is still a lack of awareness on politics and businesses help us do bundle physically take with them to be able to escape based on the supposed to be the fun to do something acceptable. That for example, the proteins, the size to rule is financing 75 percent of this cable car left a new claim. A check was carried out in the mail or the all ready have cable cars that can transport more people up to maintenance every day. And then the number of People Living inside the tools and there are already some 35 additional project. We think of the wing thats available. I need to send to meet the only the only one i hear about the olympics and the rumors that are posing around should be
