Safety & Equipment
The sports schools in Bad Kleinkirchheim offer introductory ski touring courses. The mountain guides will familiarize you with winter sports. You'll receive many valuable tips and learn how to properly assess snow conditions and avalanche risk. You can also rent touring skis and other equipment there.
For emergency equipment, it's best to always have an avalanche transceiver (LVS), shovel, avalanche probe, first aid kit, bivouac bag, and cell phone with you.
Avalanche Warning Report
If you're out without a mountain guide, be sure to check the snow and weather conditions and the avalanche warning report for your route beforehand.
Only go to secured terrain!
