Read more Safety guidelines Inform yourself well about the route and be sure-footed. **Ski touring routes are not marked and prepared. Enter at your own risk. Please observe the following rules of conduct on the ski tour.** **Healthy and fit for the mountains** Good fitness through regular endurance and strength training. Watch out for energy reserves for the descent. **Careful route planning** Pay special attention to the weather forecast, as cold, wind, and poor visibility greatly increase the risk of accidents. Plan alternative routes and checkpoints. **Complete equipment** Standard emergency equipment includes avalanche transceiver, shovel and probe, first aid kit, bivy sack, mobile phone (Europe emergency number 112), and an airbag system. **Avalanche report** Inform yourself thoroughly about the avalanche danger before the tour! How high is the danger level, where are the danger spots, what are the current avalanche problems? **Weigh avalanche risk** Base your decisions on strategic risk assessment methods (reduction methods) and watch for danger signs in the terrain. **Orientation and breaks** It is important to master handling of maps, altimeter, compass, app, or GPS. Drinking, eating, and breaks are necessary to maintain performance and concentration. **Maintain distances** Distances serve to relieve the snow cover and limit damage. Relief distances of 10 m when ascending steep slopes also increase comfort during hairpin turns. During the descent, always maintain distances of at least 30 m and descend very steep slopes individually. **Avoid falls** Falls during descent are the most common cause of accidents on ski tours. They mean a great additional burden for the snow cover. **Small groups** Small groups (up to 6 people) increase safety. Communication with other winter sports enthusiasts and mutual consideration prevent dangerous situations. **Respect nature and the environment** Take care of wild animals, respect protected areas, and avoid entering reforestation areas. Form carpool groups or use public transport for the journey.
