This equipment can be hired from Radical or another provider.
Airbag and helmet are not obligatory.
Risk management on tours: Safety has top priority.
Weather and conditions determine whether the tour goes ahead.
The tour may have to be postponed or adapted at short notice, at no additional cost to you.
The avalanche danger cannot be assessed in absolute terms, but the risk on ski and splitboard tours can be calculated through targeted risk management.
This requires continuous consideration and measures.
Your help is important here.
To run with a splitboard, skis or snowshoes in the great outdoors, you should enjoy it and be prepared to reach your destination under your own steam.

The ascent itself is not difficult.
We’ll find time to look at it together.

Every tour is unique.
In addition to the basic information such as type, location, altitude and requirements, we always find time to respond to individual wishes.
