- Take a map of the paths or an IGN map with you.
- Never set off alone.
- Choose your route according to your level, your physical condition at the time and the weather.
- Don’t hesitate to call on the services of a professional to accompany you.
- Respect nature and don’t leave your rubbish behind.
In winter
- Pay attention to other users with your equipment.
- On the slopes, be careful when overtaking, control your speed, stop at the edge of the slopes and not in the middle, respect the signs and markings
