You are responsible for your own safety. Therefore, you hike at your own risk. Stay on the marked trails to protect fragile areas.


A few recommendations:



  • Check the weather forecast before you leave

  • Some routes cross busy roads: Be careful

  • Keep dogs on a leash

  • Do not light fires

  • Take your litter home with you

  • Enjoy the flowers, but do not pick them.

  • Tick bites can lead to serious illnesses; for prevention: wear clothing that covers your skin, use repellents, check yourself upon your return, remove ticks with a tick remover tool without applying anything to them, and consult a doctor if you notice any redness, flu-like symptoms, or if you are in an at-risk group.

  • For emergency services, dial 18 or 112.
