Abstract: The vulnerability of the economic development model of mid-mountain resorts is now associated with a socio-cultural context marked by the rhetoric of uncertainty and crisis. This situation leads tourists to modify their practices, and socio-professionals to involve themselves on the path of a touristic transition, announced in speeches as necessary, but whose content and meaning remain unclear. Presenting the evolutionary trajectory of the Artouste resort, this article proposes ideas for prospective debat, around the question of the future of tourism, not of resorts, but of mountain territories, in which the majority of Pyrenean resorts try to survive today.
