Even on circuits especially built for cyclists and in-line skaters, not all hazards can be eliminated, due to topography or the location of buildings.
For example, there are steep inclines around Petkus. In other places, winding sections through the woods demand particular skating ability. Crossing streets and paths can also become a problem, if you don’t pay attention to the traffic.

Please also pay attention to the warning notices on or next to the track. You should bear in mind though, that was seems too easy for one person can be beyond someone else’s ability.

 

Therefore, local conditions should not be underestimated and you should always wear complete protective gear (helmet!).

Don't forget that some few sections of the Flaeming-Skate track are free for use of both skaters/cyclists and agricultural machines. Use particular caution and consideration.
