Safety guidelines

Winter sports report

  • Use of the trails is at your own risk.
  • Use only marked trails and observe all markings and signs – for your own safety, to protect the landscape, and out of respect for wildlife.
  • Be considerate of other trail users.
  • Every cross-country skier must adjust speed and behavior, especially on descents, to their skill level and visibility.
  • In classic tracks and on the piste for free technique, keep an appropriate safety distance to the skier in front and stay on the right side.
  • If you stop, step out of the trail.
  • Weather conditions in the mountains can change very quickly and without warning. Appropriate clothing is very important.
