Arriving in shape and being fit is important to enjoy your vacation and put the odds on your side in the outcome of your projects. Below is a table summarizing the physical level and technical level for the different activities suggested.
This table does not include all external factors: emotional, mental... engaging yourself in any Alpine activity requires an effort of commitment and you must be ready to assume it or not.
