Rome, January 2, 2020 – There is finally one data official for him reopening of ski resorts in this crazy winter 2021 marked by COVID-19 which brought him to his knees too sci. To write it in black and white on Minister of Health Roberto Speranza, today signer of an ordinance in which “the opening of the ski resorts is postponed to January 18, 2021“.
The minister thus accepted, as expected, the request of the autonomous regions and provinces that wanted a postponement of the green light, previously set for January 7, to align the guidelines the opinion expressed by the scientific committee. A need formalized in a letter sent by the president of the Conference of the State Regions Stefano Bonaccini to the ministry. Which then opted for a national go-ahead on January 18.
Even in 16 days, however, one should not ignore map of Italy by zones. Provided this is confirmed in new Dpcm which will replace, no later than January 15, the one currently in force (and to which the Regions request to attach the recently approved guidelines). As the Speranza ordinance indicates, the reopening is subject “to the adoption of specific guidelines validated by the Scientific Technical Committee.” So be careful: Without the approval of the Cts, the ski does not restart.

The guidelines
Following the conclusions of the CTS, the protocol reformulated by the Conference of Autonomous Regions and Provinces has requested that the territories not included “at least” in the yellow zone cannot keep the plants open. Translated: en red and orange zone the slopes will be closed to amateur skiers (competitive activity is already allowed).
More specifically, the new reformulation provides that “the opening of the ski lifts in the ski resorts and areas may only take place in the condition that the Region in which the plant’s infrastructure is located is at least in the called the yellow zone “.
The guidelines thus configured, with the participation in the yellow zone, now await the validation of the CTS. On the understanding that except for twists and turns, only movements between regions in the yellow risk band.
Until a few hours ago the president of the Autonomous province of Bolzano Arno Kompatscher stressed that there was still no “set date” for the reopening, announcing a new provincial ordinance for the next few days, when South Tyrol will return to the yellow zone. Now there are just over two weeks left to align the guidelines with the CTS requests and resolve the sensitive issue of the meetings.
Regions at risk of red or orange zone
Having said that January 18 went black and white, the feeling is that the game is far from over. There are 6 regions that will likely be found in an area other than yellow after Epiphany, among them are Veneto and Lombardy, rich in famous areas, but also Liguria me Calabria where, although to a much lesser extent, are the ski resorts. The hope is that we get to date with an Italy all in yellow, but it will be, once again, the advance of the pandemic (and especially the control room that analyzes the monitoring of the ISS) to establish where you can ski where no. . But in the meantime, a first step has been taken, officer.
“The mapping of supplies is urgent”
The cry of the managers, in recent days, has resounded loud and clear: “We reopen in January, or it doesn’t make sense.” The countdown has begun, while the Uncem (National Union of Municipalities and Mountain Authorities) applauds Speranza’s decision. “In recent days we have registered a growing attention of many parliamentarians for the mountain – says President Marco Bussone -, today’s announcement allows in the coming days an urgent mapping of the provisioning needs of operators, installers, ski instructors and for all categories that suffer from non-openness. “And he adds:” I hope that the strong political attention to the mountain will continue in the coming months and is based on all fronts, for all sectors, starting with agriculture and forestry. , which are essential for all Italian mountain areas. “
Alpine regions
The Autonomous Regions and Provinces of the Alpine Arc are also satisfied and in a joint statement with the Abruzzo Region they underline: “Thanks to the teamwork of the Autonomous Regions and Provinces initiated in the Tourism Commission, we finally have a credible opening date and It would be: January. Now we can finally leave safely. ” And they continue: “The Government has finally listened to the Regions and the Autonomous Provinces: we are satisfied with the decision of Minister Speranza.”
