La Asociaci\u00f3n de Ecoturismo en Espa\u00f1a (AEE) y el Ayuntamiento de Somiedo han firmado un convenio en el marco del Plan de Sostenibilidad Tur\u00edstica (PST) de Somiedo, cofinanciado por la Secretar\u00eda de Estado de Turismo, el Principado de Asturias y el Ayuntamiento de Somiedo, para impulsar y promocionar Somiedo como destino de ecoturismo y reforzar el tejido asociativo para que aprenda a trabajar en la promoci\u00f3n tur\u00edstica del destino de forma unificada e integrada<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Tourism in Somiedo needs to reduce its seasonality and strengthen its business associations. Within the framework of the agreement, which will have the support of the Association of Hotel and Tourism Services (AHOST) of Somiedo, work will be done on the development of a series of actions aimed at ensuring that the actors involved in the tourist development of Somiedo (town council, association and manager of the natural park) work together in the work done by a tourist destination management body (the “Asociaci\u00f3n de Hosteler\u00eda y Servicios Tur\u00edsticos de Somiedo”).destination management organization<\/i>).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This agreement with the AEE, whose implementation will start in January 2023, will help local stakeholders learn to use the tools of the Ecotourism Club in Spain (Club) and to differentiate Somiedo as a certified ecotourism destination to attract tourists who want to enjoy its natural and cultural values throughout the year, cooperate with the tourism administration to improve national and international promotion of the destination, increase coordination with the environmental administration to ensure the minimum environmental impact of tourism activities and monitor the contribution to local development.<\/p>\n

The actions planned to achieve these objectives include the following:<\/p>\n
