It is important to avoid an avalanche through prudent behaviour, but if it does happen, rescue can take minutes!
The ATC is a stationary facility for practising avalanche victim searches with avalanche transceivers and avalanche probes. It enables the handling of emergency equipment to be practised under almost realistic conditions.
With the only Avalanche Training Centre outside the Alps, we are now expanding our range of services and underlining the fact that safety and prevention are important to us. The centre is available to all winter sports enthusiasts free of charge. It is a cooperation project between Bergwacht Schwarzwald, the town of St. Blasien and the Feldberg lift association.
Many thanks to Girsberger Mountain Rescue Technology for the excellent cooperation!
