Safety guidelines

Despite the “untrackable” marking of the hiking trails, we recommend that you always have a corresponding hiking map with you for safety reasons, so that you can quickly find a safe area in the event of a thunderstorm or an emergency, for example.

Particularly in the fall, you should also be aware that leaves lying on the ground can hide uneven surfaces, roots, stones or holes in the path. After storms, trees can still topple over or branches can fall. Especially in adverse weather conditions, muddy and slippery passages can occur on near-natural paths. You have to expect this kind of path impairment when you go on a hike.

Not all rocks or precipices are secured with ropes or handrails. Surefootedness is sometimes required. If you are of the opinion that certain sections of the trail are not suitable for you, you should avoid them.
