Avoid entrances, access gates and parking on pavements. If in doubt, use a designated parking area even if it is further away from the access point or means paying for a space. Be aware of sensitive and easily eroded access routes. Follow signs and avoid shortcuts. An offer of help with path repairs may be much appreciated.
Dogs can disturb wildlife, livestock, local people, and other mountaineers.
Farmers may shoot any dogs that worry livestock. Be aware of the impact of large groups and organised walks. The current MCI policy is to support those organised walks that have an entry restricted to 300 people and take measures to avoid significant erosion damage. Damage to vegetation should be avoided or limited wherever possible. All wild plants are protected by law.
