German term

Wegehaftpflichtversicherung

German to English Law/Patents Insurance
In AUT gibt es eine gesetzliche Wegehalterhaftung für Wanderwege, Reitwege, Langlaufloipen und Radwanderwege.

Beispiel: Der Weginhaber ist zur Instandhaltung und Instandsetzung des freigebenen Weges verpflichtet. Die Stadtgemeinde hat eine Wegehaftpflichtversicherung und eine Betriebshaftpflichtversicherung abzuschließen. Die Stadtgemeinde übernimmt die Wegehalterhaftung im Sinne des § 1319a ABGB. Der Weginhaber haftet nur für Schäden, die von ihm vorsätzlich oder grob fahrlässig verursacht werden.

Danke!

I have gone through the risk codes used in the London insurance market and there is nothing remotely resembling this category of risk. Mary's answer would seem reasonable as this sounds like a bespoke or niche area of insurance.

Don't know about the breadcrumbs, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't cover ants, wasps, lightning bolts mad cows/bulls or amorous Hüttenwirte!
