Safety on the slopes
Everyone is equally responsible for safety on the slopes. By following rules everybody has a chance to have fun and feel themselves safe. Here at Koli safety is our number one priority and we are actively working on our safety protocols and procedures
SKI AREA RULES
- Keep your distance when you pass the skiers below and ahead of you. Pay additional attention to small children.
- Make sure your equipment is adjusted to your size, weight and ability. Use of a helmet is highly recommended.
- Respect the lift queue and be prepared to share the lift with fellow skiers. Disembark the lift only at designated areas.
- Select the slope and adapt your speed according to your skills and the environment. Always familiarize yourself with special areas i.e. terrain parks well in advance.
- Stop only at places where you can be easily seen. If you need to go uphill, always do it along the edge of the slope.
- Do not ski too fast. Pay attention to local slope and snow conditions.
- Sledging is only allowed in separately designated areas.
- You always ski at your own risk.
- Using the slopes under the influence of alcohol or drugs is prohibited.
- In the event of accident, your duty is to assist. Report any incidents immediately to ski area staff.
Always respect the information signs at the ski centre and follow the instructions given by the resort staff.
Note: the ski area staff, including ski school instructors and members of the ski patrol, are authorised to remove the ski pass from anyone who ignores the slope rules.
