Share the Trail

It's important that cycling and hiking can coexist on shared trails. We all have the right to be here, and we’re happier if we can meet each other with mutual respect, consideration and a friendly “Hello!”. 

As the slower path users, walkers should always have right of way. This prevents accidents.

By ringing the bell or calling out in good time, you can make other path users aware of your presence and prevent accidents.

If you’re out on the bike, please overtake hikers at walking speed. If you’re hiking, make room for cyclists who are trying to overtake – provided it’s possible and sensible to do so – as they have an equal right to use the path.

Please stay on the path and don’t damage the surrounding environment by cycling off-track. Don’t block your wheels.

Pass through grazing areas slowly and close all livestock fences and gates behind you. Please be respectful towards the animals.

Please treat wild animals and plants with respect and don't leave any litter behind.

Please don’t take any shortcuts across cultivated land. It damages local farming.

To prevent accidents, avoid danger spots or pass them with utmost care.
