Orientation and safety in the ski resort Lauchernalp – Lötschental
Trail map and overview maps
The piste map gives a very clear overview of the ski resort of Lauchernalp. It shows all lifts and slopes. Refreshment stops are indicated, but without the names of the huts/restaurants. It also includes information about winter hiking trails and cross-country trails. Full details for the summer season are provided on the reverse. Small cards showing the timetable for the cable car are displayed at the ticket cash desks and in the hotels.
Information boards and sign-postings on the slopes
The slope demarcations are exemplary. Arrows clearly show the location of the slopes. Information boards showing current statuses at the base station assist with orientation. Additional signposting could be provided on the slopes. On the Hockenhorngrat at 3,111 m, skiers can find panoramic maps showing the names of the surrounding mountains.
