“There is a high rate of accidents, including some fatal accidents, from trips and slips in the area known as Waterfall Country”

“A previous Prevention of Future Death report has led to the erection of signage concerning the risk of drowning in the water itself. However, the current signage provision does not adequately address the significant additional risk of accidental falling. Many walkers fail to understand the official routes, closed and open paths and the significant risks they face”

“Serious and fatal accidents will continue to occur unless these risks are addressed”

“Mobile telephone signal is poor to non-existent in certain more remote areas, which creates delay in alerting emergency services when accidents do occur”
