The route is somewhat hilly at times but not challenging - we will be on narrow single tracks at times. We will also be crossing the river by a bridge and also by a viaduct. If you or your dog has a fear of heights this walk is unadvised.
Disclaimer:
Please only come if your dog is -
- Old enough to walk for 2 hours (no puppies under the age of 10 months, unless you're able to carry them)
- Friendly with other dogs
- Obedient (good recall, particularly in situations where we may come across wild animals/livestock)
- In good health (no diarrhoea, coughing, limping, after an operation, etc)
Owners are responsible for their own dogs. Geneva hiking with dogs is a voluntary group and cannot be held responsible for any accidents/incidents during one of its walks. There are times when we will be close to roads/on the road and you will be asked to keep your dog to heel or on lead in high risk areas.
Children are welcome on this walk. Please ensure there are enough adults to keep an eye on your children and dogs in order to keep every one safe.
Please let me know in advance if your dog has any behavioural issues i.e. Fear of larger dogs, dominance, etc and we can agree if your dog can join but be kept on a lead, muzzled etc.
