I don't think there is 10-20euros travel insurance one can buy that does not exclude mountain climbing or any activity that requires specialistic gear.

- mytailorisrich 4y agoGoogle and quite online quote tells me that I can get a insurance that covers mountaineering to 6,000m (that's very serious mountaineering...), climbing, paragliding, skydiving, etc. for one week throughout Europe and Morocco with 5 million pounds medical cover for £100. Still a massive difference and deterrence level compared to putting down 15k euros.
- michaelt 4y agoYou can get top-up insurance for loads of sports [1] if you want cover for "Mountain Unicycling - Competition" or "Jousting" or "Praying Mantis Training" Of course, there are some things they won't cover - if you're skydiving you have to either be qualified, or undergoing instruction. And it might be a bit expensive - if you're doing scrambling at 7000m in nepal, it'll cost you £150 or so.

- watwut 4y agoYear long insurance for climbing is not all that expensive in EU. I know quite a few people who have it.
- ozim 4y agoThat is nice to know I am mostly into "off the shelf travel insurance" even 150euro if going into the mountains for me still would be worth it.
- watwut 4y agoDefinitely look for it, you can buy it also for much shorter periods if you know you are going to mountains. In some countries, you can buy it for a day via SMS.
