Hi

I'm new in the forums

My hubby and I are going to Europe at the end of March for our honeymoon and need to get climbing insurance, does anyone have any recommendations or experience with climbing in Europe and know who is best to go with for insurance? Need a little guidance, any advice is welcomed :)

Thank you!

We just joined the English branch of the Austrian Alpine Club (http://aacuk.org.uk/). Depending on how long you're going for that should probably cover you (obviously read the fine print).

It was about $100 or so to join and has some other benefits when staying in refugio's etc.

Looked into getting climbing insurance through an insurer and it was going to cost $1000's.

Didn't actually have to use the insurance though, so...
