Safety information

Rules for mountain walks:

• The passability of trails in a mountain environment is strictly linked to current conditions and therefore depends on natural phenomena, environmental changes, and weather conditions. Therefore, check well the route and its conditions before leaving. You can do this by contacting the nearest Information Office.
• If you plan to reach a mountain hut or refuge, make sure they are open and, if you intend to stop for a meal or overnight stay, call in advance to book.
• Leave information about your route and always carry your mobile phone with you.
• In case of an accident call number 112.
• Never abandon waste in the mountains and, if possible, avoid leaving it at the refuges or dairies you visit.
• If you spot wild animals along the way, please stay on the path, do not approach too closely, do not shout, and keep your dog on a leash to prevent it from instinctively chasing or frightening them.
