trail safety
Outdoor path security
Trail safety refers to practices and precautions that reduce risk while hiking, biking, or otherwise traveling outdoor paths.
It encompasses preparation (proper gear, weather awareness, informing others of plans), navigation (staying on marked trails, carrying maps), and hazard awareness (wildlife, terrain, conditions).
Trail safety basics include bringing enough water and knowing your limits.
