The Rules of a Good Hiker

The mountains offer unforgettable experiences, but they also require care and attention. Here are some simple tips to help you enjoy every hike safely and responsibly:

Plan your hike. Before setting off, check the route and the weather forecast, and let someone know where you are going.
A well-prepared backpack makes all the difference. Bring enough water, some food, suitable clothing and everything you may need along the way.
Know your limits. Choose a hike that matches your fitness and experience, and don’t underestimate the distance, elevation gain or difficulty.
Always stay alert in the mountains. Terrain and weather conditions can change quickly. Watch out for bad weather, loose rocks, exposed trails and slippery surfaces.
If someone needs help, lend a hand. If you come across someone in difficulty, stop and offer assistance. In an emergency, call 112.
Leave only your footprints. Respect nature, stay on marked trails and never leave rubbish behind. Whatever you bring with you, take it back down with you.
