risk 'n' fun Freeride Session Hochkönig (Level 1)

perceive - judge - decide

Level 1 is aimed at all those who want to intensify their knowledge of freeriding and gain important experience in a safe environment through training situations. With the support of the guides, you will learn to recognise and assess situations and make your own decisions about which line is the safest, most beautiful and snowiest option.

Short ascents, short hikes and lots of practical exercises take centre stage. Together with state-certified mountain, ski and snowboard guides, you will learn how to use emergency equipment safely, understand the avalanche report and take note of important points for a safe descent. The risk'n'fun instructors accompany the soft skills part: How do you deal with risk? How does the group influence your own behaviour?

The aim of the session is for you to be able to judge for yourself at the end which downhill variants suit the current conditions, your group and your ability.

Session Hochkönig - the small but fine details

"A guest in the heart of Salzburg: the base for the training session, the Hochkeilhaus, is located directly in the "Livingroom Hochkönig" with its own 5 lifts, snowboard museum and boulder room. If the conditions are right, you can start right on the doorstep with great treeruns. With the free ski bus, you can also reach other lifts of the Mühlbacher Bergbahnen in 10 minutes. Wonderful hikes and smooth pillow lines, plus endless powder - that's the risk'n'fun session on the Hochkönig."
