Respect the forest 🌲
Make sure to always follow these points when you're out climbing, so as to preserve nature and avoid disturbing other visitors in the forest. Ultimately it's about preventing climbing from being banned in the area - something which has happened to several nearby rope climbing-crags.
Keep a low profile - especially if you're visiting a smaller/sensitive area.
Pick up your trash and why not others as well? Keep nature clean and leave no traces!
Avoid damaging the surrounding nature and try not to disturb the wildlife.
Brush off tickmarks and excessive chalk when you leave.
Walk a fair bit off of the trail and dig a hole if you have to relieve yourself.

Do not damage trees, plants or the surrounding terrain.
