- When parking the cars, use some common sense and do not block any roads or access to the fields. If the marked parking space is full, find some other.
- Do not walk across the fields during the growing season
-Chipping routes is prohibited. However, there may be some loose blocks or flakes, which can be dislodged if considered a security risk.
-Unclimbed lines are free for everyone to establish new routes, if not marked as reserved project. Guideline is to reserve maximum of one project per climber per one crag per one season. After one season the project reservation is released.
-When establishing a new route, the first ascensionist is expected to clean the route thoroughly.
-There are some older routes left unclimbed for many years, gathering moss. Bring your wire brush and get some respect from climbing community by retro-cleaning and climbing the forgotten gems!
