For friends who are determined to go to worship the mountain or go on an outing tomorrow, the two experts summarized the following "three dos and three nots" tips, you have to know!

Three do:


1. Pay attention to the travel route, including checking whether the route is safe on the AFCD website.

Generally speaking, public cemeteries are relatively safer, but if they are "treasure geomantic areas" in the wild, citizens should recall whether the route is particularly difficult to navigate, and whether they are familiar with the route to avoid danger.

2. When going out, pay attention to the surrounding environment, including whether the surrounding trees have branches that have been scraped but have not fallen to the ground, whether the ground surface water is serious, and whether the road is covered by branches and may be stepped on.

3. Bring complete equipment, including long-sleeved shirts, trekking poles, comfortable and practical hiking shoes, such as going to the countryside, or need to bring branch shears.

Three don't do:


1. If the weather is bad and the route environment is unfamiliar, don't force it, and postpone the itinerary depending on the situation.

2. Water or rugged ground may be covered by branches and weeds. Don't step on it casually. Use a trekking stick to confirm the ground conditions before deciding whether to move forward, so as to avoid "burning firewood".

3. Do not wear slippers or sandals to avoid injury.
