Stamina - Endurance
A mountain athlete needs endurance above any other specific fitness skill. Cardiovascular fitness is of course always subject to the movement (as climbing rocks or steep ice, you will not be able to transfer your triathlete or running fitness to mountains without being solid in the required mountaineering skills).

Starting point: Berghaus Diavolezza (2974 m.a.s.l.)
Arrival until 16:30 / 17:00* - last mountain railroad (Fri.) / 8:00 - first mountain railroad (Sat.)
The valley station of the Diavolezza is located directly on the Berninapas road. In the triangle between Zurich, Milano and Munich and is accessible by the Rhaetian Railway or via the well developed road network. So you can reach our Xvent both by car and comfortably by train (stop Bernina Diavolezza). *The train runs in winter every 20min between 8:30 and 16:30, from 27. 02. between 8:00 and 17:00.
Day 1 (Fri.) - Drive to Diavolezza, dinner together.
Day 2 (Sat.) - Breakfast at 9:00, consultation & meeting, bivouac.
Day 3 (Sun.) - Mountain tour and/or training, journey home.
In addition to training for preparation and nutrition on expeditions, we discuss tactics and materials to stay dry, warm, and efficient even in very cold conditions. Furthermore, we deal intensively with the rules of acclimatization, symptoms of altitude sickness, and finally the treatment of the different forms of altitude sickness. We will also cover technical aspects of high-altitude mountaineering such as walking fixed ropes in ascent and descent and setting up high camps together.
After we have discussed a large part of the training content on the first day, we will set out to set up our high camp on the Pers Glacier before dark. Of course, the active part must not be neglected. Like later on expeditions, we may have to adapt the program to the weather and the current conditions.
This event is suitable for all participants of upcoming expeditions or to get to know our team. Basic knowledge of mountaineering is required, so that we can optimize your preparation. Usually, there are different level groups and several supervisors.
Recommendation: Bring the equipment for the planned expedition. Then we can evaluate your personal equipment in terms of use.
