 Ski touring is booming: Off-piste ski mountaineers fight more and more towards the summit. The Wurzeralm a popular tourers goal!

 In the Wurzeralm ski area a lot is done especially for those who like to ski. A separate ascent is offered! A so-called Tourengeherspur is prepared and made available for touring sport.- Skiing is for children up to 15 years (JG 2003)
- FREE ski season passes and day multi-day ski passes: The use of the ascent trail is included at no extra cost.
- As soon as parts of the slopes are used with touring skis or snowshoes, a snowsport card must be purchased.
- The Snowsportcard Tag entitles you to use all infrastructure facilities of the Wurzeralm ski resort (such as the use of the ascent lane, parking lots, ski slopes, WC facilities, etc.). In addition, the Snowsportcard Tag includes a lift ride, two lift rides and three lift rides with one of our cable cars per day. (only one trip per system)

**Touring by night!**- Touring at night is only possible on Wednesdays and on certain days until 10pm.
- from 5 pm on these days the valley run to the ski route has been rededicated! (The ski route is a generally accessible, suitable for downhill skiing and suitable route, which is marked and secured only avalanche danger, but is neither prepared nor controlled.)
- From 22 clock on these days, the barrier of the slope, as then the valley run is prepared for the next day.
- The Intersport Pachletitner at the Wurzeralm valley station is open until 22:00 every Wednesday when skiing on the Wurzeralm is also possible!

**SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:**
- Do not leave the marked tour and departure zone!
- Use at your own risk!
- Know your own limits – avoid overexertion!
- Before starting the tour: check the avalanche warning (www.lawinen.report)
- Non-organized ski room - descent at your own risk!

**FAIR PLAY RULES**
- Good preparation is everything. Therefore we take into account the current weather and avalanche report for our tour.
- Wild parking creates chaos and traffic delays. That's why we start from the designated parking lot - or, where possible, let the local shuttle service take us to the starting point.
- We do not go on night ski tours outdoors. For ski tours on the piste, we adhere to the local piste rules.
- Winter is hard enough for the deer. That is why we keep the greatest possible distance from the animals and their feeding stations.
- We give a wide berth to young forest with trees under 3 m. Because there are young trees hidden under the snow cover, which we don't want to damage.
- Garbage has no place in nature. That's why we dispose of packaging, cigarette butts, dog waste bags, etc. in the nearest garbage can.
- What must be must be. We still look for each other to take care of the needs a place where no one will disturb you.
