During the winter, the conditions in the  mountains are unpredictable. They can change from minute to minute.  Temperature can be deceiving as the wind plays an important role in how cold  it feels. Similarly, the snow conditions have a great impact on how easy or  hard the hike gets.

A general thumb rule is: prepare for the  worst conditions but do not overload your backpack, weight matters greatly  when it is about saving energy. Use the onion look: layers that can easily be  taken on and off. On a sunny day remember that the snow reflects the sun  light which makes it stronger – suncream and sunglasses are essential!

We do not cancel tours due to bad weather. Even if the conditions look harsh, they can also turn out to be much better  once we reach the mountains. The only  times we cancel is when the bad weather becomes dangerous weather. We will  inform you in case of cancellation. Please read our cancellation policies for  more information.
