Resum
Mountain’s studies have increased since climate change is undeniable. This scenario proposes the generation of a study capable of specifying the climatic variations and analizing how the public administration faces these transformations in relation to the adaptation of the tourism sector in mountain destinations. For this work we have examined scientific and institutional texts of the Spanish mountains that explain the effect of climate change on tourism. The studies show an increase in minimum and maximum temperatures and a decrease in rainfall in both study sites. About the planning instruments studied, these can be divided into three: those that contemplate climate change directly, those that contemplate it indirectly and those that do not contemplate it. Such global warming reduces the time that snow remains on the ground and, therefore, compromises the tourist activities related to it. Although there are consensus among researchers worldwide about the existence of climate change, many instruments presented contemplate, indirectly or even not contemplate it. It is necessary that planning instruments of these mountain areas contemplate climate change in a direct way, so as to be able to order in advance the tourism and related infrastructure, thus reducing social and environmental costs.
