Stay on the marked hiking trails. Small steps and a steady pace save energy going uphill and protect your joints going downhill. If you tilt your upper body slightly forward when going downhill, you reduce the risk of slipping. Check the weather forecast. Fog and bad weather can come surprisingly quickly. Turn back in good time before you take a risk. Do not leave waste in the countryside
