    Safe from avalanches

    All slopes in Ski amadé are very well secured. We therefore generally recommend using only the prepared and open slopes. Skiing off these slopes always involves a higher safety risk. Still drawn to open, unsecured terrain? Please make sure to check the avalanche warning level in advance!

    This is especially true when winter sports enthusiasts do not follow the rules of conduct and do not notice the machines in time. That is exactly why there is a guideline aimed at increasing safety on ski slopes in Salzburg and Styria: the snowmobile law.
