Please note that hikers and mountain bikers make use of the same paths without limitations. Both parties need to be tolerant and careful in order for this to work. It is important that mountain bikers brake to walking pace when overtaking and stop at crossroads and narrow paths, in order to allow space for hikers. Riding these trails is outside of race operation hours and is therefore without medical assistance and route safety. For any emergencies before the official start of the event, you can call 144.
