Tipps für sicheres Bergwandern
- Careful planing
Proper planning is half the battle! Hiking maps, literature, internet and experts will help you plan an unforgettable tour. By the way - equipment, weather and provisions also count towards planning. - Surefootedness
Attentive walking is the top priority in the mountains! Too fast a pace, inattention or tiredness can impair surefootedness. - Stay on marked trails
Never leave the marked trails, because this can quickly become dangerous. You don't know what dangers are lurking in the mountains. - Regular breaks
Regular breaks are not only for rest, but also to enjoy the scenery. Allow yourself to rest so that your body can recharge its batteries. - Respect for nature
Don't leave litter behind, avoid noise, stay on trails and respect protected areas. Also, be mindful of wildlife and grazing animals.
Im Winter:
- Onion principle
Dress according to the onion principle. It is better to have more clothing with you than too little. You can always take something off. - Shoes
Choose good, sturdy and above all water-resistant shoes! - Crampons
In winter you quickly get on icy passages. Crampons are a great support for these passages. - Tea
A hot tea in a thermos flask should not be missing in winter. It ensures that the body does not cool down - especially on longer tours.
Im Sommer:
- Weather

Make enough breaks, drink enough and treat yourself to a cool-down in a lake or river. - Clothing
