BIWAK CAMP powered by MOUNTAIN HARDWEAR
All those who have always wanted to spend a night at an altitude of 3,200 metres should not miss the BIWAK CAMP from Saturday 13 to Sunday 14 November. On the first day, the participants learn the most important rules for behaviour on the glacier in an avalanche transceiver course. Then, together with the two mountain guides, they will drive to the Schaufeljoch mountain station and set up camp for the night. This is spent in pairs in a tent and ends the next morning with a spectacular sunrise and breakfast in the Eisgrat restaurant.
Early Bird Ski Tour powered by K2 and SCOTT
On Saturday, 13.11. from 8 a.m., participants of the Early Bird Ski Tour have the opportunity to test the latest products from the ski touring collections of the two brands K2 and SCOTT on the still untouched slopes of the Stubai Glacier. At the beginning, mountain guides explain the most important basics on the topics of ski touring and safety on the mountain, after which the groups start from the middle station to the event area of the INTERSPORT SNOW DAYS. Afterwards there is the possibility to get valuable tips from the experts of K2 and SCOTT while enjoying a hot drink.
