A day with the Mountain Rescue Service

We have been helping in the mountains for 90 years

Špindlerův Mlýn - St. Petr Ski Resort

The Mountain Rescue Service is 90 years old. Even though the world around us is changing and mountain rescue cannot be compared to 1935, the heart of mountain rescuers beats in us just like in our predecessors. Come and join us to commemorate the 90th anniversary of the founding of the Mountain Rescue Service at the Špindel Ski Resort on September 12-13, 2025. A lot of adrenaline, sport, fun awaits you, but you will also see mountain rescuers in action, you will definitely learn something and, if you want, you can also take an excursion into the history of the Mountain Rescue Service in the Czech Republic. In addition, there will be good food, music including a concert by David Koller or activities not only for children. Of course, everything is free. We would be very happy if you came to visit us.
