It includes planning and preparation, such as conducting safety assessments, providing proper training, and using appropriate safety gear. The goal is to minimize the chance of accidents or injuries, ensuring activities are conducted safely while allowing for enjoyment and exploration. Effective risk management balances safety with adventure, fostering a secure environment where individuals can experience outdoor activities confidently.
