What's not allowed

• Smoking is not allowed on forest trails or protected rock areas due to fire safety regulations.

• Drones are prohibited in protected national park zones on both the Czech and German sides, as these areas have strict conservation rules.
• Touching or carving into rock formations is strictly forbidden to preserve the natural landscape.

Accessibility
