Guard dogs
The sheep alps in the Binntal Nature Park are committed to the coexistence of alpine farming, wildlife and tourism through herd protection. By being respectful and tolerant of the work of herd dogs and by adopting an appropriate behaviour, you can avoid unnecessary incidents and facilitate their work.
Here are the main rules of conduct:
- Stay calm and walk gently
- Get off your bike and continue on foot.
- Stay away from the herd. If you don't see any dog, speak out loud.
Here you will find the areas of the Binntal Nature Park where herd protection dogs work:
