Abandoned ski resorts. The architectural and landscape regeneration project for Monte Farno in Gandino (BG)

Decommissioned ski resorts are increasing in mountain areas, reflecting the failure of an outdated economic model based on winter tourism. Due to climate change and evolving social needs, this situation calls for a reconsideration of these sites as opportunities for sustainable and resilient tourism. The thesis analyzes this phenomenon and introduces the A.D.I.R.A. project, aimed at mapping abandoned structures throughout the italian alpine arc. The case study of Monte Farno highlights the urgent need for regenerative interventions, culminating in a proposal for the landscape and architectural revitalization of the case study.
