Abstract

Der Skitourismus spielt in den Bayerischen Alpen seit etlichen Jahrzehnten eine bedeutende Rolle, ist jedoch besonders sensibel für die Auswirkungen klimatischer Erwärmungsprozesse. Der Beitrag zielt darauf ab, die historische Entwicklung, den aktuellen Ausbauzustand sowie die Zukunftsaussichten des Skitourismus in den Bayerischen Alpen mithilfe empirischer Daten und Modellierungen darzustellen, die natürliche und technische Schneesicherheit einbeziehen. Der Klimawandel wird die strukturellen Problem beim Skitourismus zukünftig eher verstärken. Aufgrund der Abschreibungshorizonte von Beschneiungs- und Liftanlagen kann es dennoch betriebs- und volkswirtschaftlich sinnvoll sein, heute noch in Skiinfrastruktur in den Bayerischen Alpen zu investieren, auch da der touristische Erfolg der Destinationen signifikant vom Ausbauzustand der Skigebiete abhängt. Steigende Beschneiungskosten sollten bei der Wirtschaftlichkeitsberechnung und der Dimensionierung der Anlagen berücksichtigt und Subventionen hinsichtlich ihrer Wirkung auf nachhaltige Tourismusentwicklung kritisch betrachtet werden.
