The starting point of the route is located in the first big curve on the way down from the resort, about 60 meters after the waste storage area. The entrance to the route is marked with a wooden sign (found in the images in the photo gallery). Subsequently, the route is distinguished by the marking strip that combines red and white.
The route descends to the intersection with the car road from where it descends, also on the road, to the intersection with the road to the gondola, from where you can make your way back to the upper station.
