Visitor tips

1
Allow about 40 minutes for the core visit and add margin for traffic, parking, worship, security checks, mountain weather or guide arrangements.
2
Check same-week opening, restoration, religious services, local events, fire restrictions, snow, water levels and road conditions.
3
Carry suitable footwear, water and sun protection; remote routes also need offline navigation and an emergency plan.
4
Respect active worship, memorials, village homes, protected nature, private land and any photography restrictions.
