Does anyone have any recommendations for travel insurance that will cover both climbing and MTB in Europe

Thanks

Either British Mountaineering Council or Dogtag should cover you, maybe the former depending on what type of climbing/altitude/etc.

snowcard - they cover me for trad, sport, bouldering, off-piste snowboarding and all manner of biking.

they also picked up the pieces quite effectively when I bust my pelvis in les gets.

How is your German? The Deutsche Alpein Verein will cover you for all that and lots more, worldwide. All for 64 Euros per annum

Used to use the Canadian Alpine Club. It was an all in (climb, ski, ride, kayak, off piste etc) scheme that came with the annual membership which I got to use their huts and bothys. It was a surprise benefit, dirt cheap. I kept my membership up for the insurance alone as they were the only ones who went over 5 or 6000m alt when I had some big trips planned. £40 a year IIRC.

Used the German version as per welshfarmer too. Can't offer a comparison as, thankfully, never needed to use either.
