Safety guidelines
Please observe the following points on the winter hiking trails:
- Stay on the marked routes
- Allow enough time and monitor the weather
- Behave quietly; there is even the possibility of seeing wildlife; observe the animals from a respectful distance
- Your dogs may also enjoy winter sports with us but must be kept on a leash
- Take your trash home with your wonderful memories.
If nature sports enthusiasts respect the space of wild animals, fewer bans and restrictions are necessary and the natural landscape remains open for genuine nature experiences. We kindly ask for careful consideration and thank you for it!
