A winter landscape that provides space for wildlife as well as for sporting activities – this is the goal to pursue. Only an economical use of their energy reserves allows wildlife to survive the harsh mountain winter. Understanding and respect for wildlife, as expressed in the four rules of the "Snow sports with consideration" campaign, depend on broad support in society. It is forbidden to enter the wildlife rest areas.
