General advice
Please note the following:
- Participation on the tours is at your own risk. We cannot be made liable for any incidents.
- The tours will take place whatever the weather; if need be the tours themselves may be changed.
- If you choose a mountain tour, we highly recommend you join the German alpine association.
- Please bring your own lunch with you as there are not always catered mountain huts open and to hand. Note the guidelines in the individual tour descriptions.
- Be punctual at the meeting point as we are travelling by train. Train tickets will have been purchased for you in advance.
- Don't leave marked paths, shut gates, cross fences appropriately. Don't loosen rocks.
- Take your rubbish with you, including cigarette stubs!
- Treat all plant and animal life with respect.
Mountain tours
Difficulty levels for hiking and climbing tours in the mountains
| A = easy | The hiking paths are well-marked, usually sufficiently wide and normally not too steep. Mountain experience is not required and the routes are also not dangerous in wet weather. |
| B = moderate | The mountain paths are generally sufficiently marked, sometimes narrow and occasionally secured with rope. Therefore taking part on these tours requires participants to be sure-footed and physically fit. Due to the occasional steep drop, participants should also not suffer from vertigo. Mountain experience and appropriate equipment (e.g. decent shoes) are necessary. |
| C = hard | The paths and climbs are demanding and tough and not always marked. Participants must be experienced hikers and mountaineers - sure-footed, physically fit, vertigo-free and able to deal with mountain terrain without marked paths. Hands may have to be used to negotiate steep routes (rock climbing I but also II). |
Equipment
Tough boots with a grip sole, waterproof clothing, a rucksack with a jumper, a raincoat, rations and a water bottle. We recommend you bring bandages and hiking or ski poles.
Walking times
The times given are sufficient but are purely walking time and do not include rests. As a rule of thumb, you can estimate 400 vertical meters per hour for the ascent and 600 vertical meters per hour for the descent.
