 Hiking...With respect for wildlife and the environment!

In the Pölstal, we are particularly concerned about the preservation of unspoiled nature. So that the pleasure of the people does not become a problem for wild animals and nature, it requires consideration measures. 

For the sake of nature and the environment, correct behavior in the mountains is the top priority for the hiking enthusiast.

  • Use the designated parking areas
  • Do not block access roads and please respect local driving regulations
  • Observe information boards at the starting points and stick to the recommended marked routes
