Marquee activity

Even away from the scheduled presentations and workshops, the ICAR Congress is the perfect place to exchange ideas and discuss various topics with like-minded mountain rescuers. For this reason, we as organizers have decided to create a suitable space for such discussions. Therefore, a separate marquee will be set up, where rescuers can discuss in a cozy atmosphere. The marquee activity will start after the dinner and will be accompanied by local music groups and solo artists.

 

Tuesday, 17.10.2023: traditional music from South Tyrol
Wednesday, 18.10.2023: Die Veglfoucha
Thursday, 19.10.2023: Stefan and Hons
Friday, 20.10.2023: Nia ginua

Mobility

Climate change and especially climate protection is more important than ever, that's why we will try to make a small contribution at the ICAR-Congress and are of course dependent on your help.

Dobbiaco is a small village with a modest infrastructure and can't compete with the big congress centers of the world. But it stands out even more for its wonderful nature and comfortable access to the local mountains. The location and rural surroundings mean that the distances from the accommodations to the ICAR-Congress are not too far, so they can easily be covered by foot or even by bicycle.

Therefore, bicycles will be provided at the more distant hotels (above the main road), with which you can comfortably ride to the congress. The bikes can be equipped with their own badge to avoid confusion.
