Some of the trails will take you away from main roads and over rough terrain.

Please note that the weather can change very quickly, so be prepared. When walking in the hills, always wear suitable clothing and footwear and take adequate refreshments. Some trails cross farmland or go through forests. They may be muddy and livestock may be in the fields.

Only attempt routes that you can manage. Before attempting any serious exercise always consult you doctor if you have any pre-existing medical conditions.
