Val di Fiemme and Val di Cembra are engaged in promoting environmental, territorial and social sustainability. In the tourism sector, they focuse on providing experiences that respect the surrounding environment, while also encouraging sustainable practices among accommodations. Natural resource management is a priority, with a focus on forest sustainability and the use of renewable energy sources.

The valleys are also known for their social welfare, with numerous associations promoting sports activities and solidarity actions. In addition, Val di Fiemme is a unique manufacturing district, with companies specializing in various sectors related to personal care and respect for the environment. Val di Fiemme and Val di Cembra are working to preserve the beauty and unspoilt nature of the mountains, raising awareness among the community and visitors about the importance of conservation for future generations. Finally, the valleys stands out for adopting sustainable practices in various areas, such as the Predazzo bio-lake for sustainable water management and the use of renewable energy sources in the local production of biomass and wood pellets.

GSTC-Global Sustainable Tourism Council sustainability certification

We believe in a process of improvement and attention to sustainability and responsible management, which is why we are committed to obtaining sustainability certification.

We are interested in knowing your opinion and kindly ask you to answer a brief questionnaire aimed at gathering the views and perceptions of guests and residents on these topics. With everyone's contribution, we can achieve the goal of certification according to the GSTC-Global Sustainable Tourism Council standard.

Sustainable Fiemme and Cembra
and towards GSTC certification

In 2003, Fiemme was the first valley to obtain eco-certification for its forests, which are carefully managed by a thousand-year-old institution, the Magnifica Comunità di Fiemme

Throughout the year, experiences and activities are organised with respect for the environment and local culture and traditions

With the project ‘Fiemme e Cembra without Limits’ the Fiemme and Cembra valleys are committed to making the area as accessible as possible: barrier-free facilities, inclusive sports activities and services.

Our valleys are active in the area with cross-cutting projects, such as WATERWISE and other Citizen Science and reforestation initiatives together with WOWnature.

Val di Fiemme is a unique manufacturing district, with companies specialised in various sectors related to personal care and respect for the environment.

The 2003 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships held in Val di Fiemme were the first eco-certified World Championships.

Val di Fiemme and Val di Cembra promote environmentally sustainable choices, encouraging the use of bicycles, organising Car-Free Days and offering tourists sustainable holidays.
