In Sutrio, Sauris, Sappada and Werfenweng (Austria) two forms of hospitality have been developed, "Albergo Diffuso" and "Zimmer Frei", realities strongly contextualized and integrated in the community that synthesize culture, history and traditions. The Interreg IV Italy Austria GAST Project, lasting three years (2011-2014), aims to encourage the promotion and consolidation of the tourism sector.
To that end, it proposes to create a network between the various poles and, within the various poles, between commercial, tourist and artisan structures.
The ultimate aim will therefore be to involve the entire village in the offer of a complete and attractive tourist product, transforming it into a "Hospitable Community". Once consolidated, the model proposed in the "GAST" project must be promoted and disseminated in the territory. To do this there will be used events of high tourist interest that will allow a wider dissemination and sharing. The events proposed within the GAST Project for the promotion of the model have a close link with the culture, tradition and gastronomy of the area.
