Rules of conduct:

1. Consideration for others
   Every runner must behave in such a way that they do not endanger or harm others.
2. Signalling, running direction and running technique
   Markings and signals (signposts) must be observed. On the cross-country ski trail and the asphalt track, you must run in the indicated direction.
3. Choice of track and slope
   On double and multiple tracks, you must run in the right-hand track. Cross-country skiers in groups must run one behind the other in the right-hand track. When using the free technique, you must run on the right-hand side of the slope.
4. Overtaking
   Overtaking is permitted on the right or left, depending on the space available. The runner in front does not need to move out of the way. However, they should move out of the way if they can do so safely.
5. Oncoming traffic
   When encountering other runners, everyone must move to the right. The runner who is leaving has right of way.
6. Pole positioning
   When overtaking, being overtaken and when encountering other skiers, poles should be kept close to the body.
7. Adjusting speed to conditions
   Every runner must adjust their speed and behaviour to their ability, the terrain conditions, traffic density and visibility, especially on downhill sections. They must maintain a sufficient safety distance from the runner in front. If necessary, they must throw themselves to the ground to prevent a collision.
8. Keeping the trails and slopes clear
   Anyone who stops must step off the trail/asphalt slope. A skier who has fallen must clear the trail/asphalt slope as quickly as possible.
