According to DAV Magazin, in 2023, 40% of hikers who had an accident and were uninjured made an emergency call because they were in a difficult situation. Everyone must get the best possible information before planning a tour. This does not mean downloading a track from the relevant portals, but rather familiarizing yourself with the terminology behind it.

• What does T4 mean on a hiking trail?
• Do I have an understanding of whether I can manage the altitude?
• Do I have the necessary equipment and do I know how to use it?
• What will the weather be like on my tour?
• How do I read a map?
• Where is the best route?
• How do I orient myself in the terrain? Route planning with the "alpervereinaktiv / outdooractive" app.

We explain this and much more in a course: "Map - Skills - Route planning":

• Tour planning (also digital with alpenverein.com)
• Equipment
