Itinerary description
Follow trail north from car park, not main trail. You should see a sign.
Tough hike up to the start. Steep for 30-45 mins.
Via ferrata is great fun and can be done unguided (so long as you have the proper equipment) unlike most others in the area. It's moderate difficulty; some big reaches between rungs and places where you need to use the rock. The rock is really sticky though so good to use.
Hike back down is tough on loose rock for a while. There are ropes to help descend in some parts but still difficult.
