INTRODUCTION
Adventure tourism is defined as the movement of
the people from one to another place outside their
comfort zone for exploration or travel to remote
areas, exotic and possibly hostile areas. 
Adventure travel is a leisure activity that takes
place in an unusual, exotic, remote or wilderness
destination. ALPINE SKI HOUSE
According to UNWTO, ” adventure
tourism can be domestic or
international, and like all travel, it
must include an overnight stay, but not
last longer than one year.”

In the mid-1800s, adventurers began to


push the limits of mountain climbing
and river rafting, with the first ascent
of the Matterhorn in 1865 and decent
of the Colorado River in 1869. Shortly
thereafter, two key institutions were
formed. The National Geographic
Society and Explorers Club. These
institutions are supporting adventures
tourism continuously.
