Get well informed to ski safely
- Ski during the opening hours of the resort (in the morning the slopes have not yet been secured and in the evening the presence of snow groomers using winch cables makes the slopes very dangerous)
- Favor marked routes: the slopes are secure, rescue services are not far away and the risk of avalanche is very limited
- Avoid going up the ski slopes as much as possible, prefer marked routes and trails
- Pay attention to the information signs, whether they concern the marked route, the dangers (descents, bumps, track crossing) or the environment (protected areas with prohibited access)
- Always carry your safety equipment, i.e. the DVA, shovel and probe set, even on the station's marked routes
- Before you go, find out about avalanche risks and weather forecasts
- Choose a route that corresponds to your abilities and allow enough time to complete your hike: do not overestimate yourself
- Drink, eat and rest regularly
- Do not blindly follow in the footsteps of others
- Don't forget, the mountain guides and ski instructors of Megève are at your disposal to accompany you during your ski touring outings.
