Avalanche Training Center (ATC)

Saving lives, knowing how

Container

It is important to avoid an avalanche through prudent behavior, but should it still happen, the rescue is a matter of minutes!

The ATC is a stationary facility for practicing avalanche victims-seekers with avalanche transceivers and avalanche probes. It allows to train the handling of the emergency equipment under almost realistic conditions.

With the only Avalanche Training Center outside the Alps, we are now expanding our range of services and underlining that safety and prevention are important to us. The facility is available to all winter sports enthusiasts free of charge. It is a cooperation project of the mountain rescue service Black Forest, the city of St. Blasien and the Lift association Feldberg.

Many thanks to Girsberger Mountain Rescue Technology for the good cooperation!
