NOTE:

We strive to announce all closures caused by forestry work or hunting societies on this platform. Nevertheless, there are situations where trails may be closed, and we might not have been informed. If you unexpectedly encounter a road closure or detour, please observe the signs for your own safety.

Hazard situations:

In case of an emergency, quick help is needed. Even though mobile phones can send GPS signals, the classic rescue points are often the fastest way to get help. These are located in places accessible to rescue vehicles. Remember the points with green signs and a white cross. In an emergency, return there and give the number on the sign when calling for help. This way, rescuers will know where to find you.
