Dear friends,
We’re looking forward to welcoming you to the mountains this winter season. In view of the exceptional circumstances caused by COVID-19, we are required to take specific measures in relation to the organization of our tours and courses in the interests of all our health.
From 1st of March 2021, our offers can be carried out with the normal group size of up to 10 participants and one guide. The 5-person rule will be lifted.
We are complying with the requirements of the Swiss Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH) and following the protection concept of the Swiss Mountain Guide Association (SBV). The mountain huts and hotels we visit must also have implemented a protection concept in accordance with government guidelines. The same applies for mountain railways and lifts.
All winter courses and tours can be booked as normal. We will act fairly with regard to any programs that would need to be canceled due to the Coronavirus outbreak and will refund your deposit in full.
All guests who take part in an offer from the Mammut Alpine School receive a free Mammut face mask for protection.
If you have any questions or require further clarification about the situation with regard to COVID-19, we will be happy to provide additional information.
Best regards
Franz Widmer
Head of Mammut Alpine School
