Non-motorized trail activities

• Prioritize your horse’s well-being: familiarize yourself with the Code of Practice for the Care and Handling of Equines and follow its recommendations diligently. 
• Adhere to the rules: respect the trail regulations and the instructions that are reserved for equestrian areas.
• You have priority: when you come across hikers or other riders, slow down and greet them. Even if priority is always for those on horseback, give way to them if necessary. 

• Respect the trails: make sure you stay on the trails reserved for your activity. Avoid walking on trails marked for skiers in order to preserve their quality. 
• Respect priorities: let skiers pass, they always have priority. Maintain a safe distance and allow them to pass without hindrance on shared paths. 
• Make the work of trail-makers easier: if you take a shared circuit, walk to the side to avoid damaging the ski trail. It also helps maintain a harmonious relationship between people who practice different activities. 
• Don’t obstruct the trail: when you take a break, move to the side of the path to provide room for others. 
• Pick up your trash: make sure you leave the trails clean by picking up your trash (even the smallest pieces!).
