How can you prevent fire?

Everyone must be careful with naked flames in natural areas.

Cigarettes

Therefore, do not throw away cigarettes on the ground. Extinguish your cigarette well and dispose of it in an ashtray or garbage can. 

Barbecues and campfires

Also pay attention if you want to use a barbecue or make a campfire. Only do this in places where it is allowed. And make sure the fire is completely out before you leave. 

Can you make a fire in nature?

In most public places (such as in the forest) making fire is prohibited. If it is permitted, it is stated in the APV (general municipal bylaw) of the municipality. This states where and under what conditions it is permitted. You can request the APV from your municipality.
