Meteorological conditions:
The weather in the mountains can change quickly and unpredictably. Always equip yourself accordingly and only go on tours that are appropriate for your skill level.
In winter, it is particularly important to pay attention to the avalanche situation.

Keep your distance, do not touch the calves and do not walk your dog across the pasture if you can avoid it.
