How to use the via ferrata guide's

Description:

This is a nice route that follows the torrent. It starts with some rope ladders and a bridge, to the far bank, after which is a mix of paths and a few more bridges back and forth.  Following this there are two sportier sections, the first tackles a rock face, and the second involves bridges overs a small waterfall, another cliff face and back. Each sportier section has a walking route around it. The routes then join for the final bridge and path out. A nice route for family’s, never gaining much height and with options to miss harder bits out.

Descent: after that last bridge follow the path up stream until it turns up and left to a sign and a path junction.  Turn left and follow it back down towards the parking.  The path meets a road on a bend and then continues again.  Once you meet the main road turn left to the parking, beware of cars on this section of road.
