Table, benches, stove, broom Recommendation to shelter visitors: You are in municipal and cantonal forests. The shelter you are staying in is the private property of the municipality or the State. It was built as a shelter for people working in the forest, who therefore have priority use of it. If forestry staff do not need it, the municipality is happy to make it available to walkers, provided they respect the following conditions: - occupation is limited to one day - except in cases of distress, overnight stays are forbidden - if needed, use must be shared with other people - reservations of any kind are not allowed - fire may only be lit in the stove and with all due precautions; the wood used must be supplemented with deadwood found in the surrounding forest - when you leave this shelter, leave it clean and take your rubbish and empty bottles with you The Municipality or State foresters reserve the right to ensure compliance with these rules and to take appropriate action if necessary, to prevent any misuse.
