rules

Customers are hereby informed that as from 01/01/2005 the use of helmets by those under 14 years of age is obligatory, for both skiing and snowboarding.

1.      RESPECT FOR OTHERS – each skier must behave in a way that does not put anyone else at risk or the cause of any damage.

2.      SPEED CONTROL AND GOOD BEHAVIOUR – each skier must keep to a speed and method of good behaviour in keeping with his/her capability as well as the weather conditions.

3.      CHOICE OF DIRECTION – as the skier is in a dominant position on the slopes, and has the possibility of choice, the skier must avoid taking a course which could bring about a collision with skiers down in the valley. Sorry, your browser doesn't support Java(tm).

4.      OVERTAKING – can be done up on top as well as down in the valley, both on the right or on the left, however always keeping a safe distance to allow the skier which has been overtaken to have ample movement.

5.      CROSSING AND CROSSROADS – a skier which accesses a slope or crosses a practice area, must be sure that, by visual checks up the mountain or in the valley, it can be done without causing danger to him/herself or others.  The same action must be applied after each stop.

6.      STOPS – the skier should avoid stops unless they are really necessary, on the slopes, on the obligatory paths or in poor visibility.  In the situation that a skier falls, he/she must quickly leave the path.

7.      ASCENT TO THE SLOPES – the skier should only have access to the slopes via the means provided by the installation and must not wander about in the event of poor visibility.  This same behaviour must be adopted by the skier who descends on foot.

8.      RESPECT FOR THE SIGNS – all skiers must respect the signs along the slopes.

9.      IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT - emergency aid must be given by anyone who is on the scene of an accident.

10.  IDENTIFICATION – whoever has been involved in an accident or is a witness to one must give his/her generalities.

11.  MINIMUM SPACE ALLOWED FROM THE EDGE OF THE SLOPE FOR OVERTKING – it is a rule that a skier does not overtake on a curve, ample space must be allowed for easy overtaking.

12.  TRAJECTORY – attention must be paid to the trajectory taking into account the skis, snowboard telemark and fun used.
