Use of the hiking trails and information on this website is at your own risk. Conditions on site may cause changes to the route.

Use only marked hiking trails and follow all signs and instructions – for your own safety, the protection of livestock, and without disturbing the peace of wildlife.

Be considerate of other trail users and the landscape. Take your waste and that of others with you.

Carry sun protection. UV rays at high altitudes can be very strong, even in cloudy weather.

Plan your hike carefully: consider the fitness level of all participants, weather forecasts, and seasonal influences.

Weather conditions in the mountains can change very quickly and without warning. Appropriate clothing and sufficient provisions (food and drink) are very important. Turn back early if the weather is unstable.

Do not venture onto glaciers without a mountain guide.

Observe warning signs indicating dangers.

Inform third parties about your route and, if possible, never hike alone.

Pay attention to the opening hours of the cable cars.
