Description 📝

Not interested in learning for the exams yet? Or simply need a break from Uni?

Join us for a thrilling 3-day hike with a trained guide in the beautiful Austrian Alps! ⛰️ This adventure is perfect for students with some hiking experience who are ready to take on mountain trails, enjoy stunning alpine views, and spend nights in cozy mountain huts.

While this event is not suited for beginners, if you have a measured fitness level, are comfortable hiking for several hours per day, and are eager for an adventure, you’re exactly who we are looking for! We will reach peaks over 3,000 meters, so be prepared for high-altitude trekking and incredible panoramic views. Expect rewarding climbs, breathtaking scenery, and a great time overall! 🏔️🎒🔥

Pricing 💰

Base Price: CHF 80

For each of the following discounts, you receive a CHF 5 discount:

  • 🚆 Austrian Vorteilscard or Klimaticket
  • 🏔️ Membership of an Alpine Club

For example, if you have the Vorteilscard and are part of SAC (Swiss Alpine Club), your participation fee would be CHF 70!

Helpers Policy 🚨

Being a "Deputy" means you declare yourself ready to help coordinate the hikes, optionally lead a small group yourself, and in case of any emergency, can stay with any person(s) requiring care until professional help arrives. This ensures the event's continuation and may mean your trip onwards might be over (if catching up is no option). Deputy helpers get a 20 CHF discount off their base price as compensation. Helpers must sign up for the event normally and tick the "apply for helper" checkbox!

Refund Policy 🔄

Under solid reasoning (death in family, sickness with medical report, cancellation of the Sundayz, etc.), you will get your money back. No refunds are given if you must cancel the trip on your own accord (e.g. not in physical shape to complete the hike) or are excluded from the tour by the guide for reasons such as dangerous behavior.

The Fine Print 📜

  • ❗ We will cross the border and stay three days in Austria (EU member state). Make sure your visa requirements allow such short trips.
  • ❗ Unfortunately, you can only join for the entire trip and cannot opt out of single elements (e.g. paying for the train ticket yourself).
  • ⚠️ The tour guide and mountain hut personnel reserve the right to exclude you from the group if you do not adhere to the VIS Code of Conduct or engage in other inadequate or dangerous behavior.
  • 🔍 Every participant is responsible for their own insurance.
