Entering the route is strictly at your own risk. Local conditions must be strictly observed.
Please observe the current avalanche report
Before starting a route, you should announce your destination and expected return time in the valley. Carrying an avalanche transceiver is strongly recommended.
Avalanche danger scale
1 (LOW)
An avalanche release is only possible with a large additional load on very few extreme steep slopes. No spontaneous avalanches (so-called slides) are to be expected. Generally safe conditions.
2 (MODERATE)
An avalanche release is likely with a large additional load mainly on specified steep slopes. Larger avalanches are not to be expected. The snow cover is generally well consolidated, except on some steep slopes. Careful route selection for the specified steep slopes and slope exposures.
3 (CONSIDERABLE)
An avalanche release is already likely with a small additional load, especially on the specified steep slopes. Occasionally some medium and occasionally large avalanches are possible spontaneously. The snow cover on many steep slopes is only moderately to weakly consolidated. Experience in avalanche assessment necessary. Avoid specified steep slopes and slope exposures as much as possible.
4 (HIGH)
An avalanche release is already possible with a small additional load, especially on the specified steep slopes. Occasionally many medium and repeatedly also large avalanches occur. On many steep slopes the snow cover is only weakly consolidated. Route selection should be limited to moderately steep terrain along with observing avalanche run-out zones. Much experience in avalanche assessment is necessary.
5 (VERY HIGH)
Spontaneous numerous large avalanches, even in moderately steep terrain, are to be expected. At this warning level, safe operation in ski areas is no longer possible. The snow cover is generally weakly consolidated and unstable. Avoid routes is recommended.
Ski touring rules
- Respect nature and rules: Observe the applicable regulations in all activities in nature and when choosing your route, such as wildlife protection zones, hunting restrictions, reforestation areas, and information boards.
- Respect for wildlife: Respect quiet zones for wildlife, avoid feeding places, and avoid loud noises.
- Crossing forests: Cross forest areas in winter only on approved trails and routes. Animals react very panicked to unpredictable noise.
- Behavior towards wildlife: Recognize the habitats of wild animals and avoid them if possible. Observe wildlife from a safe distance. Dogs must be on a leash; it is irresponsible to let dogs run free in winter.
- Time planning: Plan your route so that you start early enough and return before dark. In spring, you should be back at the hut by noon to minimize avalanche danger.
- Avoid reforestations: Never go through reforestation and young growth areas.
Avalanche transceiver equipment, mobile phone, topographic map, multilayer clothing, change of clothes, sunscreen, sunglasses, snack.
