RISK EDUCATION
The practice of the Mountainbike sport is associated with sport-specific dangers. Users of the trails at Bikepark Winterberg must be aware and take note of the fact that riding on the trails or practising the sport is associated with unusual risks. Even the greatest possible care and compliance with the terms of use are no guarantee for a risk-free practice of the Mountainbike sport!

The risks result, for example, from the terrain, natural or artificial obstacles, weather conditions, riding errors, lack of riding skills, overestimation of one's own abilities, other people, vehicles or animals and other factors. Falls with damage to property, bodily injuries (also serious) can result from these risks. This applies not only to the user's own person or objects, but also to other persons and objects. The user is responsible for taking out adequate insurance for the risks associated with the practice of the sport (e.g. liability, accident, salvage, etc.).
