The time indications are guidelines under good conditions for moderately experienced tour participants. Time indications for snowshoe tours can vary greatly depending on conditions, equipment, and fitness. Plan enough time and start early for the planned tour!
This tour description and the marking on the terrain do not constitute a tour recommendation. Every decision to proceed lies solely with the individual tour participant. It is strongly advised against proceeding in poor visibility conditions (fog, snowfall, etc.) or during increased avalanche danger. Attention spring conditions: From about March and generally on warm and/or very sunny days, tours must definitely be ended early.
