Preparation
Make sure when choosing the route that it matches your mountain experience and your fitness. Check the weather report in advance. Weather can change surprisingly quickly in the mountains. Always start accordingly equipped (e.g., rain protection).
Check if the huts and snack stations you want to visit on the way are open. Inform someone about your chosen route and planned return before you set off.
Always take suitable maps with you. Wear sturdy shoes suited to the route, bring sun and rain protection as well as water and a snack. Take your mobile phone with you and save the important numbers.
