Tips and suggestions
For your own safety, always take a bottle of water, a hat, warm clothing and footwear suitable for walking. Depending on the weather conditions, some routes are not recommended in bad weather (fog) or are not practicable, or even forbidden, during the winter season. Some sites are fragile, so stay on the marked paths. Avoid picking wild flowers and disturbing wildlife. Pick up your rubbish. Animals are not allowed on some routes.Roadbook
