Mountain Academy
Description
Navigate the mountains more safely and independently: The Mountain Academy by Andermatt Guides imparts practical knowledge and essential skills for alpine adventures.
In winter, the focus is on topics such as snow and avalanche science, route setting, terrain assessment, and decision-making off marked slopes. In summer, everything revolves around rock and glacier, rope techniques, navigation, weather knowledge, and alpine self-responsibility.
The courses take place directly in the mountain environment around Andermatt, the Gotthard, the Ursern Valley, and the Furka. Under the guidance of experienced local mountain guides, theoretical foundations are combined with practical exercises in the field.
Whether gaining your first alpine experiences or deepening existing skills, the Mountain Academy offers versatile training opportunities for different levels of experience.
