Traveling off trails causes trampling of vegetation, which can lead to erosion and premature degradation of trails and wildlife habitats. This degradation results in the need for repairs and additional costs. Trails are designed with hiker safety in mind. Leaving the trails can pose safety risks, especially in winter when snow may conceal potential hazards.

What is in the park stays in the park, and what you bring with you leaves with you. Please do not pick plants or collect rocks or branches. Kindly carry out your waste and dispose of it properly in the bins at the park entrance or at home.

To ensure the safety of climbers who may be present on the climbing walls, please do not throw anything from the cliff.
