Pre-University Paper from the year 2019 in the subject Tourism – Miscellaneous, grade: 5.0, , language: English, abstract: This is an essay on the impact of the retreating Titlis glacier on tourism in Engelberg.
The fieldwork question is firstly linked to the topic “extreme environments”. This links to Engelberg because Engelberg is situated in an alpine region surrounded by tall mountains. The second syllabus topic is linked to “leisure, tourism and sports”. Engelberg is a tourist and mountain sports destination. “Global climate – vulnerability and resilience” is another syllabus, since the climate change has a great effect on snow conditions and the glacial retreat.
