Abstract: Mountain areas have always been attractive to facilitate various sports activities, being the initiators of the development of mountain resorts. These activities take place predominantly in the winter season, but also in the summer. However, it is becoming increasingly clear that the existing seasonality must be eliminated.

Therefore, it is recommended for these areas to use good practices, as this knowledge is usually well defined and tested in business.

There are already studies in which models of good practices are presented as those mountain tourist destinations where seasonality has been eliminated using the concept of "4 Seasons". In these destinations, recreational and sporting activities can be developed throughout the year. Joining multiple elements makes it possible to offer accommodation, rest and services on the same territory.
