Navigation, emergency transmitter

Orientation and safety on all your outdoor adventures

Navigation and emergency beacons are among the most important pieces of your outdoor gear – especially when you're off the beaten track, in the mountains, or in remote regions. Whether trekking, bikepacking, mountaineering, or long-distance hiking: knowing your location, the route, and how to reach help in an emergency provides security and opens up the possibilities for real adventures. At Eddy's Adventure, you can rent or borrow modern navigation devices, GPS watches, and emergency communication systems and test them out on the go. With our "rent first, buy if you like it" option, you can find out risk-free which technology truly enhances your outdoor experiences.

Why navigation and emergency equipment are indispensable

Even the best-laid plans reach their limits when fog rolls in, a path becomes impassable, trail markers are missing, or you're venturing into unfamiliar terrain. Navigation devices and GPS watches help you stay reliably on course – regardless of cell phone reception and with precise route guidance. Emergency beacons also allow you to send out SOS signals, transmit your location, or contact rescue services in an emergency. This combination greatly increases your safety and gives you the freedom to explore new routes. Renting allows you to try out different systems and choose the right equipment for each trip.

Which navigation & emergency beacons you will find at Eddy's Adventure

Our product range includes various solutions for orientation and safety.
GPS watches like models from COROS offer navigation directly on your wrist and are ideal for trekking, trail running and bikepacking.
Handheld navigation devices support you on long trekking tours or alpine routes where you need reliable map data.

Which equipment ideally complements navigation

Navigation unfolds its full potential when combined with the right outdoor equipment.
A light backpack, functional clothing and a headlamp will help you on long stages where orientation is particularly important.

For multi-day tours, stoves, sleeping mats and sleeping bags complement your setup and help you to travel safely and comfortably even in remote regions.
In combination with navigation and emergency transmitters, this creates a well-rounded system for outdoor use – safe, flexible and adaptable.
