The sustainable development of mountain tourism is crucial for preserving the delicate ecosystems and resources found in these unique landscapes. This research paper investigates the sustainability ...of mountain lodges, which serve as essential facilities for delivering mountain tourism services. To assess sustainability, expert decision making involving eight selected experts was employed. A hybrid approach combining the IMF SWARA (IMproved Fuzzy Step-wise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis) method with Fuzzy Dombi Aggregation Operators was utilized to determine the weights of various sustainability criteria. The IMF SWARA method assigned initial weights based on expert input, which were subsequently adjusted using Fuzzy Dombi Aggregation Operators. The findings highlight the significance of two key criteria as per expert evaluations: the quality of the services offered (C21) and the preservation of natural resources (C15). To rank and evaluate the mountain lodges, the fuzzy CRADIS (Compromise Ranking of Alternatives from Distance to Ideal Solution) method was employed, ultimately identifying Zabrana (ML6) as the top-ranked mountain lodge. The validity of these results was confirmed through result validation and sensitivity analysis. This research contributes by providing insights into the current state of mountain tourism and offering guidelines for enhancing the overall mountain tourism experience through the integration of fuzzy methods.
It was the 1970’s when we noticed the problem relating to human waste treatment in mountain districts by occurrence of eutrophication of the Oze District. Then in the 1990s, there was a rising ...concern about the human waste treatment again when Escherichia coli was detected in rivers which issue from the mountain districts including the Southern Alps. Backed by these problems, development and introduction of non-discharge human-waste treatment equipment which was usable even at sites where the infrastructure was not constructed were promoted. As diverse techniques of human waste treatment were required depending on the condition of a location, the Ministry of the Environment established in 2003 the division of treatment technologies for human waste in mountain district in “The Pilot Project of Environmental Technology Verification of Japan” to verify objectively the performance of the technologies by third parties. Thus, the Ministry has exerted their efforts for dissemination of these technologies. Five years have passed since this verification project was introduced, and it will be a full-fledged operation in 2008. Hitherto, verification methods of technologies and improvement of the verification system were mainly examined. It would be a mature time to make the project beneficial to users as well.
The purpose of this study is to clarify the planning and design of Kamikochi Hotel as mountain lodge under the Policy of Tourist Industry during 1930s. The process of planning and design of this ...hotel had been hold round table talk organized by Kishichiro Okura who was chairman, Imperial Hotel. There were mountain-climbing specialists and him Okura reflected their comments with his intentions on the planning and design of the hotel. Through this process, Kamikochi Hotel was constructed as a mountain lodge in the Policy of Tourist Industry.
