What Schneewise customers say

"The tours are really well thought out and superbly designed. The variety of topics and tasks in particular makes every tour exciting and varied. The content was a great help for me as a less advanced avalanche assessor."
Kathi
"Beautifully prepared tours that convey the important information using concrete examples and consolidate the knowledge learned through the questioning."
Philipp
"I liked that it was step by step as when you go touring and therefore helped going through the same thought process as when outside and keeping it realistic."
Tanja
"I find the training sessions perfect in combination with an outdoor course. You can repeat everything again in peace and quiet."
Florian
"I am a ski tour guide and did the training because I was interested in the approach and whether it is useful and sensible for my customers, which I am convinced of after the training. I can only endorse your approach and will recommend it to others."
Christian
"I particularly liked the interactivity and the accompanying explanations, details and illustrations!"

Get fit for winter

It's about you and your safety

Fresh tracks, steep slopes, a quick call from the group and you're right in the middle of it. Away from the piste, many things are appealing, but that's exactly where mistakes happen. With our free "Decide before you ride" avalanche training course, you will learn to consciously experience such situations and make safe decisions for yourself.

You will experience how peer pressure arises, learn to say "stop" and practise justifying your decisions: digitally, realistically and without risk.
