Communication and Dissemination Plan
BELLUNO PILOT AREAS REPORT INTRODUCTION FUTOURIST is pursuing new and innovative approaches satisfying the increasing demand of a natural tourism and the need of people to live a really intense experience among nature. The project faces the growing importance of sustainable activities to guarantee a soft tourism and the economic and social stability of a region. It also promotes an untouched landscape, as a base for an almost natural tourism. The project aims at municipalities, locations and regions that are less exploited by tourism and are located outside of conservation areas such as the National Park and Nature Parks. To realize the goals of FUTOURIST, that were approved by the authority, the following requirements were defined in the first step of the process of pilot region identification. • Presence of characteristic and special natural and/or cultural landscapes or features that are suitable “to be put in scene”; • Relation to locals who are engaged in conserving natural and/or cultural landscapes or features and/or are interested in communicating and transmitting knowledge or experience • Location outside of existing conservation areas • Perspective to pursue a nature-compatible and eco-friendly tourism that is in harmony with nature • Absence of hard touristic infrastructure and touristic exploitation Project partners defined 20 criteria in the categories morphology & infrastructure, nature & culture, tourism, economy and players for the selection of the potential pilot areas in order to guarantee sustainability to the project and ensure continuation of the activities. FUTOURIST provides for the identification in the province of Belluno of three experimental area that better respond to these criteria and in which sustainable tourism can be practiced The needs of the local stakeholders have been gathered during various meetings, the analysis and the drafting developed by DMO Dolomiti and the presentation of the plan commissioned at Eurac Research have been taken into consideration. -

In recent years a wide range of new hiking routes has been created in the Alps, but none running through such a variety of landscapes as this one, which links the eternal glaciers at the foot of the highest mountain in Austria with the Veneto plain. A fantastic route in 19 daily stages, some 180km long, providing a total of about 100 hours of hiking. Something like a prestigious trekking holiday in Nepal – if not better - and all of it in European territory.
