During the Alpine Fitness project, a small group of interested parties visited the Nordic Fitness Park in Villnöss. There, Mr. Messner, Managing Director of the Tourism Association, told them about the development of the park and its future prospects. The Villnöss Valley is concentrating on similar priorities to Alpine Fitness, and has been pursuing its project for some time now. Mr Messner’s comments on the difficulties and hurdles that had to be overcome during the project were particularly interesting. He stressed that it is essential to identify with the project and get fully behind it, and pointed out the importance of single-mindedness and staying power.
