Understanding Mountain and Snow Tourism as a Travel Segment
Mountain and snow tourism involves traveling to and enjoying mountainous destinations, especially those blanketed in snow. This type of tourism is largely seasonal, peaking during winter months when snow is plentiful. It offers a range of activities such as ice climbing, snowshoeing, and dog sledding, catering to travelers seeking both adventure and relaxation amid stunning natural landscapes.

Adventure Tourism as a Key Growth Driver for Mountain and Snow Tourism
A major factor propelling the mountain and snow tourism market is the rising enthusiasm for adventure tourism. This segment focuses on journeys to remote or exotic locations that involve physically demanding outdoor pursuits. The appeal lies in travelers’ growing desire for unique and thrilling experiences that combine challenge, personal accomplishment, and deep connections with nature and local cultures.

Mountain and snow tourism fits squarely within this adventure tourism category by offering exciting and physically engaging activities in rugged, pristine environments. For example, in June 2023, Australia’s non-profit group HikeWest reported that 2.2 million adults participated in bushwalking, up 15% from 1.9 million the previous year, raising national participation to 10%. This increasing interest in adventure-related activities directly supports expansion in mountain and snow tourism.
