Bicyclists, horse riders, joggers and walkers like to use paths and areas that are primarily used for agricultural and forestry purposes. This often leads to misunderstandings between recreational users and farmers and foresters. Observing simple rules of conduct can facilitate relaxed coexistence in fields and meadows.
