The "Respect Your Limits" initiative was launched in 2004 by the Vorarlberg state government. The goal of this campaign, which has attracted attention beyond the state's borders, is to raise awareness among sports enthusiasts and those seeking outdoor recreation about the needs of flora and fauna. The campaign is based on three central pillars.
To ensure that nature can unfold its beauty undisturbed, a great deal of money is invested in the construction, maintenance, and upkeep of forest and farm roads – including public funds. This way, we want to ensure that you can practice your favorite sport on paved and safe trails – and that you don't run the risk of damaging the soil and vegetation or leaving grass scars on your mountain bike when off-trail. Be thoughtful and help: Close pasture fences after crossing them, accept road closures, be considerate of hikers, avoid paths off the marked trails – and take your trash home with you.
We are all role models
Even if each and every one of us can't move mountains on our own: We are all role models. Perhaps your careless counterpart is copying your behavior.
Markings
The most important protected areas in Vorarlberg are designated and marked accordingly – with information boards on site and markings on hiking maps and ski maps:/skigebiete/pistenplan-interaktiv/. The motto applied here is: Less is more.
This is by no means intended to spoil the fun of physical activity in nature for sports enthusiasts. On the contrary: Our goal is to shape the interaction between humans and nature in such a way that our sensitive Alpine landscape remains intact for future generations.
