- If you rent mopeds, bicycles or cars, make sure you know the local traffic regulations and make sure the vehicle is in good condition.
Always carry a comfortable pair of shoes for walking. - If you go on an adventure holiday, don't skimp on equipment. One of the best precautions against injury is quality equipment.
- If you plan a lot of exercise on holiday, start exercising already before you leave, perhaps with long walks.
Always avoid dangerous actions such as climbing rocks or daring dives.
In the event of an injury that temporarily prevents the victim from walking, it is possible to hire a wheelchair for the short recovery period. Although it is not a piece of equipment you can live with naturally, it is equally essential to rely on a professional service, which offers certified wheelchairsproperly maintained and sanitised at the end of each hire.
