If that is not possible, walk in single file and do not step in the tracks. - Plan enough time and monitor the weather - Behave quietly, so there is even a chance to see wildlife; observe the animals from a respectful distance - Your dogs are also allowed to do winter sports with us, but must be kept on a leash - Take your trash home with your beautiful memories. If nature sports enthusiasts respect the space of wild animals, fewer bans and restrictions are needed and the natural landscape remains open for genuine nature experiences. We ask for careful consideration and thank you!
