Day 1: Hut Approach, Equipment Knowledge, Knot Tying, Alpine Hazards and Environmental Influences
We'll meet at the agreed meeting point and, after a brief gear check, ascend to the hut where we'll be staying for the next few days. After a quick refreshment, we'll begin with the basics and first examine the equipment. We'll then learn the required knots and practice them extensively until we've mastered them. In the evening, we'll discuss alpine hazards and the environmental influences we can expect in the mountains.

Day 2: Foothold Training, Rope Techniques, Abseiling, Tour Planning
Today we're heading out into the terrain. We won't stray too far from the hut and will cover more basics. Foothold training: what do I need to pay attention to in order to be as safe as possible while also conserving energy in rough terrain. We'll learn simple rope techniques to be able to quickly secure ourselves somewhere, but also how to abseil if there's no other way forward. In the late afternoon, we'll sit down with a map and see how much important information we've already received. Other aspects of proper tour planning and preparation are also on the agenda. We will then plan the third day together: a practice tour, where we will try to incorporate the content of the previous two days.

Day 3: Practice Tour: Climbing with mountaineering boots on rock and firn, belaying techniques
Depending on what we have planned, we will do a group tour on the third day. The goal is for the participants to make their decisions as independently as possible, and the mountain guide will be available to offer advice at all times and, if necessary, intervene to correct any misjudgments.

The program and content are not set in stone and will be adapted as needed depending on the participants' level of knowledge and the local conditions (weather, terrain, conditions). If we are flexible, we can get the most out of these three days. =)
