The number of coaches coming to Hallstatt doubled in the space of five years, reaching 21,254 last year. Many of the bigger tour groups were made up of visitors from Taiwan, China, South Korea and the US. 　　While today the virus has brought a measure of serenity to the village, the debate on how tourism can be made more sustainable has returned even more forcefully. A growing divide had been opening up between the local winners and losers from the tourism boom, Scheutz said. 　　As Austria was easing its COVID-19 lockdown last month, Hallstatt brought in a new system for limiting coach numbers — only for the coaches to vanish anyway. While the car park has been full on the weekends since lockdown eased, current visitors are overwhelmingly Austrians or people from neighboring countries. 　　“The way it is now reminds us of how Hallstatt was before, and we’d like it to stay that way,” said one local climbing the steps to her house, which clings to the mountainside. 　　The forced respite brought about by coronavirus should be a chance to “get things back in order,” Scheutz said, adding that the village could swap quantity for “quality” when it comes to tourism. But it’s not as easy as saying: “We’ll start from scratch,” he said.
