Original: Coolcations: tourism boom is taking a toll on chillier destinations
The rise of 'coolcations' — holidays taken in cooler-climate destinations as travellers flee summer heat — is putting new pressure on places unaccustomed to mass tourism. The United Nations University highlights that the boom is taking a toll on these chillier spots, straining local infrastructure, environments and communities as visitor numbers climb.
Why now: Climate-driven shifts in travel patterns are pushing more tourists to cooler destinations, raising concerns about overtourism there.
