Terms and Conditions (see each sub-promotional site for individual T&C)Terms and conditions
Parameters, mountain sports and risk
The terms and conditions apply for all programs of Freeride Alpe Adria. Irrespective of the general terms and condition of Freeride Alpe Adria, there are specific terms and conditions which apply for the programs of our individual offers. Please check out the terms and conditions at each site for the details (Glocknerguides, Alpsolution, Freeride Hohetauern, Freeride Sella Nevea). Freeride Alpe Adria as an operator stands synonym for freelancing mountain and skiing guides and state proved skiing instructors who promote and run their own programs through the above stated pages.
As in many situations in life even with all caution and vigilance there is a certain remaining risk which cannot be eliminated completely in all alpine and mountaineering sports. The participation in the programs is in autonomy and on own responsibility and risk. In case of accidents, damages, losses or any other irregularities no liabilities can be assumed. A considerable extent of vigilance and autonomy will be presumed even with alpinist beginners.
The requirements stated in the program descriptions have to be fulfilled by the participants. If a person does not fulfill the requirements, the guide or instructor is eligible to fully or partially exclude the participant from the program. In this case no refund can be claimed. Despite the best tour planning and guidance, we cannot guarantee an unconditional success in reaching the program goals or peak. In case of unsuitable weather or due to security reasons no surrogate claims are applicable. Surrogate claims are also not applicable if the fault is due to a participant (e.g. fitness). Loss or mending costs of damages of the free rented equipment, which exceed normal wear, have to be replaced by the participant.
Booking and payment
The enrollment is primarily made by email or the website Freeride Alpe Adria (booking and contact form). Enrollments via phone are also possible. Each enrollment will be confirmed by us through an email or by post with a booking confirmation and is then binding. The payment of the full fee should be made at the end of the program to the stated bank account after receiving a bill. Payment with a credit card or any other kind of cards is not possible. When program fees exceed 800€, a deposit of 30% of the full amount has to be transferred at least four weeks before the start of the program.
Cancellation policy
Every participant has the right to rescind from the contract in written form. If this concerns a multi-day program a cancellation 31 days before the start of the program does not involve any fee. In case of a later cancellation the following cancellation fees arise: 14 to 8 days 50%; 7 to 4 days 70%; 3 to 2 days 85% and 24 hours before the start of the program 100% of the full amount. When booking a one day program the following cancellation fees apply: 72 hours before does not involve any fee; up to 24 hours 55% and within 24 hours before the start of the program 100% of the full amount. Potential cancellation fees of hotels and lodges have to be covered by the participant. We recommend to independently complete a travel cancellation insurance. If the cancelled spot can be resold, no fees apply. In case the program cannot be conducted by Freeride Alpe Adria – because of whatever reason – Freeride Alpe Adria can rescind from the contract short-notice. In that case we’ll try to organize a substitute program or refund the amount which was paid in advance.
Insurance
We recommend a mountain cost insurance, which is for example included in the membership of the alpine association. The program prices of all programs do not include any insurance.
