Equipment

It should be noted that mountain sports entail an increased risk of accidents and injuries. Despite careful route planning, a basic risk always remains. Preparation through endurance training, corresponding technical training and further education, as well as personal caution, reduces the risk and hazards. But please never forget that weather in the mountains can change very quickly. Stay on the marked hiking trails. Personal mountain sports equipment must be safe and functional and meet the respective technical standards. Every hiker is advised to inform themselves about the planned routes through alpine specialist literature or locally.
