Safe Mountaineering

Note the size of the group as well as the age, sex, and mountaineering experience of the group members. Don't overestimate the competence of yourself and the group members;
Choose the popular paths/trails. Villages, stores and telephones en route will serve as points of supplies and help;
Choose the paths which are preserved by the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department and trek along the planned paths. Don't take short cuts and paths which are not clearly way-marked;
Leave an information sheet on the journey and the personal particulars of the group members to your family, friends or the organisation responsible for the activity. In case of emergency or journey overdue, the information will be useful for them to seek help from the police;
Leave a reference on the journey and the relevant information to the local police station before the journey starts. Don't forget to cancel the reference when the journey ends;
In summer months, plan a route with watercourses and spots shaded by trees. Leave more time for rest. Don't plan a prolonged journey;
Change or cancel the activity plan if inclement weather is forecasted.
