ruckXbob tour in Spital am Pyhrn

Exclusively in Austria

The ruckXbob is a smart combination of backpack, sled and bob. As our valued guest, you will experience the fascination of "hiking through the winter landscape and winter fun while tobogganing" on the guided ruckXbob tours.

Comfortable on the go

Practically stowed on the back, snowshoe and winter hikers can comfortably transport their luggage uphill with the tried and tested Deuter backpack system. Inside, this winter sports device offers up to 35 liters of space for the necessary equipment and clothing.

An advantage that should not be underestimated shows up again and again on the way: With the ruckXbob, comfortable and dry seating is available in no time at every break.

Exciting alternative

Once at the top, we take our time, take a deep breath and enjoy the view of the wintry panorama. Afterwards, strengthened, we make our way - the snowshoes safely stowed on the carrying frame - on the sleek deep snow descent into the valley.

Ingenious: the ruckXbob offers many options for varied tours that promise a lot of fun, even when there is still or little snow.

Hint / Advice:

• The ruckXbob is available exclusively from Adventure Management in Austria
• During the course of the tour, you will learn everything you need to know about hiking in winter: correct equipment, handling game and forest, dangers in the snow and emergency scenarios.
• Depending on the route chosen, light to athletic fitness is required
• The ruckXbob is your backpack!
  So it makes little sense to prepare your own backpack perfectly. When repacking in the ruckXbob, especially for small parts, pack sacks or the like are useful and helpful.

Dress warmly, but in several layers according to the "onion skin principle". In this way, the heating effect can be adapted to the conditions at any time.

Hat and gloves: They keep those parts of the body warm that would otherwise lose a large part of the heat.

Sun and cold protection for all exposed parts of the body (face, nose, ears). Good sunglasses are especially important in winter!

As waterproof as possible, but breathable shoes with good insulation: mountain boots or winter boots with a good grip are suitable.

Pack enough to drink, because the loss of fluids is enormous during sweat-inducing activities. Insulated drinking systems make drinking on the go particularly easy.
