| Description | The general use of forests, as stated in the Forest Act, has its declared activities, which are prohibited for reasons of protection of the forest environment. The movement of a large number of visitors in particular can damage the forest, so it is necessary to design a controlled recreation. The paper focuses on the issue of cross-country cycling in forest stands. By designing singletrails, it is possible to prevent disturbance of the forest environment, but also collisions between forest visitors and forest management activities, or even between the visitors themselves. |
