Health & logistics gate
Pause before you order
Walking an unlit valley road after dinner may be inappropriate. Use confirmed transport and never rely on a short map distance alone.
Wash hands, choose freshly prepared food, keep raw and cooked food separate and use safe water. Seek professional medical advice when illness is severe or persistent.
