Safety guidelines
- Use of the trails is at your own risk.
- Use only marked trails and observe all signs and notices—for your own safety, to protect the landscape and out of respect for wildlife.
- Be considerate towards other trail users.
- All cross-country skiers must, especially on descents, adapt speed and behavior to their skill level and visibility.
- In classic tracks and on the free technique piste, keep a safe distance to the skier in front and stay on the right side.
- If you stop, leave the trail.
- Weather conditions in the mountains can change very quickly without warning. Appropriate clothing is very important.
