Avalanche Know-How

We all well remember the incredible winter of 08/09 – but with it came several tragic avalanche incidences. To reduce the risk of becoming an avalanche victim you need professional equipment, a basic avalanche knowledge and constant training.
No matter whether you enjoy free riding, ski touring, snowshoeing or just riding powder – you need to understand what you are doing. This is why ORTOVOX offers professional training in cooperation with our partner guide companies. This training is fun and gives you knowledge to be safer out there.

Sign up for a course, visit one of our ORTOVOX training centres (free entry) or at least read the ORTOVOX avalanche columns!
