Tips and suggestions

In broad terms:

A small first aid kit for minor injuries.

Always check the weather before setting off on a hike.

Do not stray from marked paths and trails.

Do not approach or feed animals you encounter, whether wild or domestic.

Remember you are not alone on the route and on foot you have no "bodywork". Even though pedestrians have priority in France, holding your children's hand is not a cure-all, but simply being careful on the road will at best prevent you from ending your holiday prematurely.


Using the routes and information on this website is the responsibility of each hiker. Conditions on site may lead to route changes. Make sure to inform yourself well before departure.


Reminder for all hikes:


• Carry a map. Download the full route description with a large-scale map.

• Use only marked paths and observe all signposts – for your safety, livestock protection and not to disturb wildlife. Do not approach or feed animals, whether wild or domestic.

• Check that the routes are not temporarily closed for danger (tree felling, risk of landslides, etc.), a brief internet search can help during your trip planning.

• Close gates after passing.

• Be respectful of other users as well as plants and animals.


Reminder for mountain hikes:


• Take special care to protect yourself from the sun at altitude. UV rays can be very strong even when the sky is overcast.

• Plan your hike carefully: consider each participant's fitness level, weather forecast and season.

• Weather conditions can change quickly and unexpectedly in the mountains. Suitable clothing and sufficient food and water reserves are essential. If weather is uncertain, turn back in time.

• Inform others of your itinerary. If possible, avoid going alone.

• Do not venture onto glaciers without a mountain guide.

• Be aware of warning signs about constant danger in riverbeds, along waterways below dams or reservoirs: water levels can rise rapidly and unexpectedly
