What does “restriction” mean to visit the forest – yellow
With a restriction, you can enter the forest for walks, collect mushrooms or berries. You cannot enter the forest by car, it is forbidden to make fires. On the interactive map, the area is painted yellow. This means 3rd class of fire hazard.

Areas where it is forbidden to visit the forest are painted red on the interactive map. This means that people cannot visit the forest under any circumstances. The fire hazard situation in the area is difficult - 4th and 5th grades. When hovering the cursor there on the interactive map, you will see the number of the decision of the district executive committee to ban visiting the area.
What kind of fine will offenders be
