Safety First on the Slopes

Essential slope safety information

Slope Safety Regulations

  1. Helmet requirement
    Starting from the 2025/26 winter season, wearing a helmet will be mandatory for all winter sports such as skiing, snowboarding or tobogganing, regardless of age.

  2. Alcohol ban
    Since 1 January 2022, the same regulations that apply to road traffic have also been in force on Italian ski slopes. A blood alcohol limit of 0.5 has been set for skiers and snowboarders, and skiing under the influence of drugs is strictly prohibited.

  3. Liability insurance
    Since 1 January 2022, all individuals using Italian ski areas are required to have liability insurance that covers damage caused to third parties. Many common private liability policies – such as family insurance plans – already include winter sports, but it is advisable to check this with your insurance provider. The ski pass does not include liability insurance. If needed, appropriate insurance can also be purchased online for individual days.
