Cover Story: The main objective of the study is to challenge previous approaches to heritage, both in terms of management and conceptualization. It aims to highlight the importance and articulation of the different attributes in abandoned vernacular landscapes in search of a sustainable approach. To do so, the study focuses on a specific landscape in the Mediterranean basin where some areas of intensity have been selected for an assessment of the principles of integration and consistency of the landscape. These areas have helped establish distance and cognition in determining strategies for sustainable tourism. The discussed criteria provide new insights into the dynamic and static realms of authenticity and integrity, which help in the analysis of previous rigid conventions on values, perception and approach.
