The documentary series offers a captivating insight into the world of mountain rescue and shows the diverse challenges the rescuers face, what they achieve, what they experience, and what they feel. Despite their beauty, the Bavarian Alps also harbor numerous dangers, for example, when tour planning is poor, one's own abilities are overestimated, or the natural surroundings are underestimated: Steep slopes, unstable weather conditions, avalanches, and unpredictable natural events make mountaineering and hiking ventures with a risk that should not be underestimated.
