Abstract
Abstract This chapter discusses the pillars that have enabled the development of the Dolomite winter tourism offer in the Italian Alps, the limits of this model and the challenges that stakeholders in the sector are now facing. The analysis is based on findings from fieldwork conducted in some of the Dolomites' main tourist destinations with key players in the winter tourism sector (the directors of the destination management organizations and ski lift companies), which aimed to discover whether (and if so, how) the concept of environmental sustainability is influencing the management of winter tourism offers.
