Itinerary description

Start at the parking area before the barriers and head off up the forest track for about 50 minutes until you reach two cairns in the right that are the start to the Ferrata.
This Ferrata does not always have rungs and there is lots of climbing/scrambling on the rock, often in exposed positions so it is not for beginners and is more suited to those with rock climbing experience. Not sure about scrambling grades but this is at least UK 4 or possibly 5 and climbing grade Diff in places. You are always attached to cable when climbing but could still take a hefty fall.
Once the top is reached there is a good zig zag path off and 45 -60 mins walk brings you back to the car.
Both rock climbers we loved this.
Ignore the different start/finish point, couldn’t get Wikiloc app to work for first part of walk in.
