Grazing animals & hiking trails: 5 tips for sharing the outdoors safely 🐄🥾

Hiking through alpine pastures often means crossing paths with cows, sheep, or other grazing animals. To keep things safe and respectful for everyone involved – humans and animals alike – follow these simple tips:

✅ Stay on marked paths – Avoid wandering across meadows.
✅ Keep your distance – Don’t pet or feed animals.
✅ Stay calm – Sudden moves can startle them.
✅ Avoid young animals – Don’t come between a mother and her calf.
✅ Leash your dog – Animals may feel threatened by dogs.

Respect nature and you’ll enjoy a peaceful hike – for you and the animals. 🌿🐾
