The FIS rules apply to this facility:
1. Be considerate of other skiers: Be aware of people around you and take necessary action to avoid skiing dangerously or causing a hazard to yourself or others.
2. Control your direction and speed of travel, taking account of the terrain, snow, weather and traffic conditions
3. Select an appropriate path. If you are skiing behind someone it’s your responsibility to ski around them without causing any danger to them.
4. Overtaking: You can over-take from either left or right but you must leave enough distance between yourself and other skiers to allow them to maneuver properly.
5. Entering/reentering the slope: Every skier who wishes to enter a slope, or reenter it after making a stop, must look up and down the hill to ensure that this can be done without causing a hazard to himself or others.
6. Stopping: Avoid stopping at blind corners or narrow or enclosed places unless you have to i.e. you’re injured. In the case of an injury you must vacate the spot as soon as possible, to avoid further danger (to yourself or others).
7. Ascending/descending: You must always use the side of the slope to walk up or down, whether on foot or with skis.
8. Pay attention to and follow the signs, markings and notices on the slopes.
9. Assistance: You are obliged to offer help and assistance in the event of any accident.
