Tips when reporting an emergency – Answer these six WH questions: What happened? How many people are injured? Where did the accident happen (are there GPS coordinates)? Who is reporting the incident (callback number)? When did the accident happen? What is the weather like at the site of the incident?

Proper backpack packing makes many things easier: Pack heavy things first.
The water bottle should always be within reach in a side pocket.
All the things that are often needed, such as sunglasses, camera or hiking map, belong on top.
An emergency kit, including blister plasters, belongs in every rucksack and it is always advisable to dress in layers.

Be sure to plan a quick stop at the walk-in wine bottle, which offers a stunning view.
