The Gwangju Gwangsan Fire Station has urged special caution regarding hiking safety accidents, anticipating a sharp increase in hikers during the autumn season.


If an accident occurs during a hike, hikers should check the mountain location sign installed on the trail, immediately report to 119, and provide first aid using emergency medicines stocked in the simple rescue first aid kit.


Additionally, for a safe hike, hikers must follow safety rules such as ▲checking weather information ▲doing light warm-up exercises before hiking ▲not leaving designated trails ▲prohibiting hiking under the influence of alcohol.
