Use at your own risk. Please observe the following behavior rules on the ski tour.** **Healthy and fit in the mountains** Good fitness through regular endurance and strength training. Pay attention to energy reserves for the descent. **Careful tour planning** Special attention should be given to the weather report, 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 (European emergency number 112), and an airbag system. **Avalanche bulletin** Inform yourself thoroughly about avalanche danger before the tour! What 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 and watch for danger signs on the terrain. **Orientation and breaks** It is important to be skilled in using map, altimeter, compass, app, or GPS. Drinking, eating, and breaks are necessary to maintain performance and concentration. **Maintain distances** Distances serve to relieve the snowpack and limit damage. Relief distances of 10 m when climbing steep slopes also increase comfort during switchbacks. During the descent always keep distances of at least 30 m and ski very steep slopes alone. **Avoid falls** Falls during descent are the most common cause of accidents on ski tours. They impose a great additional burden on the snowpack. **Small groups** Small groups (up to 6 people) increase safety. Communication with other winter sports enthusiasts and mutual consideration prevent dangerous situations. **Respect for nature and environment** Take care of wildlife, respect protected areas, and do not enter reforestation areas. Form car pools for travel or use public transport. Read more Nearby ------ View on map - Event - Further sports - Further sports - Excursion Download GPX file - - - -
