MAMMUT Snow Safety Sessions with Sport Conrad in Allgäu (Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Outdoor)

Mammut Safety Sessions in the field or indoors

Mammut offers a number of indoor and outdoor workshops in Germany, Switzerland, France and Sweden. In the outdoor program, state-certified mountain guides and Mammut safety experts jointly teach important basic knowledge for beginners and experienced skiers - live on a practice ski tour. The aim is to refresh avalanche knowledge and practice use of safety equipment (duration approx. 7 hours). The indoor program also provides an introduction to general avalanche awareness. You can also expect helpful tips on how to use your avalanche equipment (duration approx. 2 hours).
