A moderate level of fitness is all you need

Weather:

Even when snow is scarce, there are plenty of exciting tour options that promise great fun. Early winter and spring are the ideal seasons for natural tobogganing – when it’s too snowy for hiking but not quite enough for ski touring.

3 – 6 hours

Location:

Pyhrn-Priel Region, Almtal, Teichalm, Reichenau an der Rax

Price info:

price per person

Group size:

From 5 to 30 participants

Equipment / Clothing:

• Dress warmly – but in several layers, following the “onion principle.” This allows you to adjust your warmth to the changing conditions at any time.
• Hat and gloves: These keep warm the body parts through which you would otherwise lose most of your body heat.
• Sun and cold protection for all exposed areas such as face, nose, and ears. A good pair of sunglasses is especially important in winter!
• Footwear: Choose waterproof yet breathable shoes with good insulation — sturdy hiking boots or winter boots with solid grip are ideal.
• Bring enough to drink, as physical activity can cause significant fluid loss. Insulated drinking systems make it especially easy to stay hydrated on the go.

The RuckXBob is your backpack! So there’s little point in carefully packing your own backpack in advance. When transferring your gear to the RuckXBob, small stuff sacks or similar organizers are useful and help keep things tidy.

Appointment availability:

December to April (depending on snow conditions)
