The popularity of alpine skiing today is globally estimated at around 200 million participants. It is clear that such a number of participants means an increased need for active medical attention and care in the field itself as well as nearby hospitals. The aim of this paper is to study and point out the emergence of alpine skiing injuries, recreational and competition and to give recommendations for their prevention. Detailed description will be made of the types of knee injuries that can occur in recreational skiers, as well as a detailed description of the most common knee injuries and treatment and rehabilitation in some cases. Changes in ski equipment have also caused changes in the skiing technique, and as a result, the injuries we encountered in alpine skiing have changed. According to the risk factors and the mechanisms of skiing injury, it is evident that prevention is based on: development and improvement of the quality of ski equipment, improving physical fitness for skiers, educating and informing skiers, arranging ski trails and controlling the number of skiers on the slopes. Also they will try to determine whether there is a difference in the type of injury to advanced skiers, beginner skiers and skiers dedicated to the prevention of injuries and recreational skiers who consider alpine skiing as a type of fun.
