Ski Randonee insurance

Ski randonee is a sport which has risks associated with it and it's important that you have an insurance policy which has ski randonee covered as standard and which will provide full medical assistance if an incident occurs when taking part in this sport.

Randonee - also called "Alpine Touring" is designed for accessing the backcountry and is suitable for aggressive, steep terrain. In practical terms the sport differs from alpine skiing because the heel can be released by the use of special bindings for both climbing or traversing across flat terrain but can be locked when descending and using the typical alpine skiing parallel turn. When climbing, skins are used just as with telemark skis but randonee skis are typically heavier than traditional telemark gear.

When taking part in this sport, your participation must be in a leisure, non professional capacity and you must chose cover for the full duration of your trip, not just the period you intend to go touring.
