There is also a substantial fire risk through picnickers lighting fires and not being able to control them.
Secondly, what about picnickers who light a fire which then spreads to a neighbouring plantation or building?
It would be unfair to put all the blame on picnickers.
From my experience, those inaccessible places are often beauty spots which attract great numbers of people, including campers, caravanners and picnickers.
One can think, in particular, of picnickers and riverside walkers—people who make up a large part of those who want waterside recreation.
I only mention this with a view to emphasising the necessity for protecting young plantations and keeping picnickers as well as animals away from them.
The picnickers who park at the bottom of the valley would not be affected at all.
This is due perhaps to picnickers not being too careful.
