It is up to the traveler to be aware of thier location at all times as with anywhere else in the world.

Likewise the hiker/stroller.

I tend to be one of those who believes that a warning of risk at the entrance to a place, be it a building or a path, includes the entiriety of the place I have entered and that the risk does not end until I have exited such a place.
