Thus, the Romanian Parliament adopted the Law No 526/2003 of 16 December 2003, approving “The National Program for the development of mountain tourism ‘Super-ski in the Carpathians’” with the main component “tourism for skiing and other winter sports”. The investors wasted capital that is unprofitable and needlessly, affecting the environmental sustainability.Īn analysis of the natural tourist potential of the country focused especially on skiing led to the necessity of a project for modernization and extension of the ski areas, ski lifts, and other types of facilities for winter sports. In conclusion, too many ski slopes have been created without considering the actual snow conditions. Only 17.8% of the slopes complied with the “100-day rule” during the first season and 21.3% of them during the second one, which does not ensure profitability. The 225 ski slopes studied have been opened, on average, less than 62 days and more than 20% of them have not even been opened. A statistical analysis based on the collected data has been done. The status of ski slopes, slope conditions, and snow depth were collected daily, during the 2016–20–2018 winter seasons, from a Romanian website specialized in snow cover information. Some examples of bad practices regarding the development of skiing infrastructure in link with the potential impact on the environment are presented.

This research highlights the low efficiency of ski slopes and ski areas concerning the functionality during the winter season, even though a number of investments have been made. In the last years, Romania has made major efforts to develop the skiing areas and some important projects have been implemented in the Carpathian Mountains.
