- Always stay on the marked paths to avoid getting lost and preserve the natural surroundings.
- Be sure to respect the signs, lift schedules and local guidelines.
- Keep your distance from livestock and always close gates behind you.
- When mountain biking, choose a trail suited to your ability: in the Bike Park, the trail colours (green, blue, red or black) indicate the difficulty.
- Always wear a helmet and protective gear when mountain biking: good equipment is key to staying safe, especially for families.
