Itinerary description
HR: Prva via ferrata u Šibensko – kninskoj županiji duga je nešto manje od dva kilometra, a moguće ju je proći za oko dva sata, dok cijeli izlet s povratkom može trajati i do tri sata. Ferata najvećim djelom prati prirodne usjeke, “police” duž kanjona, a najljepša je kada Čikola nabuja jer se tada hoda iznad prekrasne moćne rijeke. Na početku staze od parkirališta do prvog raskrižja treba paziti da se skrene lijevo, a ne desno prema dolje, jer desno prema dolje se ide po kraćoj pješačkoj turističkoj stazi.
EN: The first ferrata in Šibenik-Knin County is less than two kilometers long, and can take about two hours, while the entire return trip can take up to three hours. The ferrata carries most of the natural creeps, the "shelters" along the canyon, and the most beautiful is when river Čikola swarm because it is possible then to walk over a beautiful powerful river. At the beginning of the trail from the parking lot to the first intersection, be sure to turn left, not right down, because right down the trail goes on a shorter walking tour.

I’ve done this ferrata today. It’s quite nice and easy. Unfortunately we had a really big problem to find the beginning of the ferrata path. Everething is marked really good but it seams that some arrows and information boards are missing...
The key moment is where the circle walls are. You need to go back a few metres to find the path you should choose. I think it is the moment ‚molany’ described - that you should be careful to turn left (not right), unfortunately there is no visible crossing of paths. When you go a few meters of the proper path you’ll see the way is really good marked with white/red signs.
The ferrata part is not long, most of it is simple (A), a few parts could be (B), one part in the end - about 10 meters long is (C). When the path is going back ferrata part is totally over. To go back to the parking the shortest way you should be careful not to go to much to right side, it’ll take longer, you’ll get to normal route. We just go back on direction - we couldn’t find the red-marked way at the track that „molany” marked on the map.
