Difficulty
Physical effort, technical demands, trail conditions, ascent and duration — this says nothing about exposure.
Fear of heights
Exposure only: drop-offs, narrow paths on steep slopes, traverses, bridges and ladders. Assessed independently of the difficulty grade.
Why this rating?
The route enters the wild Joli gorge and crosses a suspension bridge about 20 metres above the gorge; the official description explicitly promises thrills and adrenaline. It then follows wooden planks, a tunnel and a historic irrigation channel.
