Before you set off

  • Take identity documents for every person in your group.
  • Bring essential medication, warm clothing and drinking water for at least 24 hours.
  • Charge your phone and, if possible, a power bank.
  • Leave large luggage behind — vehicles and shelters have limited space.

On the route

  • Move only in the direction of the arrows shown on the map.
  • Do not enter areas marked as closed or restricted.
  • Assist elderly, disabled and unaccompanied minors where possible.
  • If you become separated from your group, proceed to the nearest listed town on your route and wait for the next uniformed patrol.

The route is reassessed as the situation changes. Check this page before leaving — the map here is always the latest official version. In case of doubt, contact the CIMIC Centre by phone before setting off.
