PIEPS AVALANCHE TRAINING CENTER

The most modern LVS technique coupled with practical management and intensive training

The right conduct on the slope and the correct assessment of the weather and snow conditions are imperative for everyone who skis off-piste.  Everything else is residual risk.  Just in case of the worst-case scenario, one must carry the most modern LVS device to increase one’s chances of survival.

Even today, in our high-tech age, outside help of any kind comes too late for 9 out of 10 avalanche victims. A real chance of survival lies with immediate help from friends in the same group.  They must locate and dig out the avalanche victim within the first 10 – 15 minutes.   Our PIEPS-LVS avalanche search area provides the optimal opportunity to learn to use real LVS devices, to practice successful search strategies and to experience realistic conditions of an “emergency”.  This is then a crucial contribution towards more safety on the mountain!

The facilities on the Kitzsteinhorn are some of the most modern in the world!

This computerised facility is equipped with an easy-to-use touch screen which enables the user to train autonomously at any time. The training results be analysed on the spot or over the internet.
