- Take a ten-minute break every two hours.

- Never leave the marked trail.
- Abort the tour in good time in the event of danger or deteriorating weather conditions.
- Emergency equipment (first aid kit, mobile phone and torch) belongs in every rucksack.
You can do a lot to ensure your safety on a hike or mountain tour even before you set off: good planning is the be-all and end-all. The choice of route must always be based on the fitness and mountain experience of the weakest member of the group. For mountain tours, it is therefore essential to find out about the level of difficulty and nature of the route! If you want to be on the safe side, it is best to join a guided hiking group. In addition to the added safety, this has the advantage that the mountain guides know a lot about the country and its people. What's more, hiking with a group of like-minded people is often even more fun.
The equipment must always be adapted to the conditions. A map as well as sun and rain protection belong in every rucksack. The weather in the mountains can often change quickly and cause unpleasant surprises. Good shoes are a prerequisite anyway, and telescopic poles protect the knee joints when walking. Even on easy hikes, don't be reckless and always take enough to eat and drink, especially if you have children with you. Don't forget: Exercise in the fresh mountain air makes you thirsty and whets your appetite!
