BECOMING A GUIDE Webisode #1: „It’s not a man’s world“ (English)

Our first webisode launched to coincide with International Women’s Day, focuses on women in the career of mountain guiding. Are women prejudiced in mountain sports? What obstacles does Bianca have to contend with on her journey to becoming a guide? And what were the experiences of Germany’s first ever female mountain guide, Gudrun Weikert?

Such a tremendous series of videos, and a great episode.

A great short film! I can hardly believe how the Austrian guide scene has been so slow to accept female guides. Disclosure: I'm a British man who has always loved skiing and climbing in Austria, my favourite Alpine destination (including the Dolomites, esp Sud Tirol). When I have partnered with female guides, I have always appreciated their interest and concern for their client's experience on the day - in short, empathy. So I'm surprised to learn how little female guides are represented in the Austrian guiding scene. But that's just me, I guess...
