❹ GROUP SPIRIT

Hiking Buddies has to be considered as a group of friends willing to spend a good time together in the mountains. The person publishing the event is someone like you who doesn't want to go hiking alone. For that reason (s)he spends a significant amount of time looking for a route, taking care of choosing the right transportation, checking the weather, if huts are open, etc. As a participant, your duty is to respect the work of the organiser by being on time, sticking with the group, being polite with every other participant. Also, don't join if you have plans after the hike - you never know what can happen (accidents, slow group, delayed train) and we could get back to Munich later than expected.

Oh, and remember - Hiking Buddies wouldn't be that great without those brave organisers. So don't just join events, and go for it, create events yourself! I'm sure you won't end up going alone
