Safety instructions

Use of the winter hiking trails and information on this website is at your own risk. Conditions on site may cause changes to the route. Valais/Wallis Promotion assumes no responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the information on this website. 

• Carry a map with you. Download the complete description of the hiking trail with a large-scale map by clicking "Print" at the top right of the page.
• Use only marked hiking trails and observe all signposts and instructions - for your own safety, to protect grazing animals and out of respect for wildlife.
• Be considerate of other trail users and the landscape. Take your waste and other people's waste with you.
•  Carry additional sun protection. UV rays can be especially strong at high altitude, even in winter and in cloudy weather.
•  Plan your hike carefully: take into account the required fitness level of all participants, weather forecasts and seasonal conditions.
•  Weather conditions in the mountains can change very quickly and without warning. Appropriate clothing and sufficient provisions (food and drink) are very important. In unstable weather, it is better to turn back early.
•  Do not go on glaciers without a mountain guide.
•  Observe warning signs indicating hazards, especially avalanche danger.
•  Inform third parties about the route and if possible, never go alone.
