Round The Mountain Track
Before you go
Check the forecast by altitude, not just the valley: it is colder and windier up high. In summer storms build in the afternoon; start early and turn back if the sky closes in. Carry water, sun protection and a warm layer even if it is hot below.
There is not always phone coverage in the mountains: download the map before you go, tell someone your plan and call 112 in any emergency. These data come from OpenStreetMap and the weather forecast; confirm with the resort and official sources.
This is not the resort's official programme: it is what is mapped in OpenStreetMap within 5 km of the resort centre. Check opening times on the resort's own website. © OpenStreetMap
