Summary/Abstract: Despite the recognised absolute character of proprietorship one has to take into consideration certain restraints resulting from contracts or rules of law. An example of this might be “snow-law”, that functions in, for example, Switzerland or Austria. These countries permit to use third party real estate for the common good. From the point of view of the economics and the law it seems necessary to regulate the issue of using third party real estates in mountainous areas during the winter. The presented paper is an attempt to judge such an issue and present certain possible solutions from the point of view of the law and economics.
