Walk-in
From Pazzallo mid-station, follow the hiking path heading towards San Salvatore for around 200 metres, and then turn right onto a newly-made path by  the "Achtung Steinschlag" sign ["Beware of rock-falls"]. It zig-zags through the steeply sloping woodland to the start of the via ferrata, at around 680 m.

San Salvatore via ferrata
The route across two vertical to overhanging sections of wall, in part also with grassy sections, is continuously secured with a thick steel rope; however, iron stirrups are only in place at some key points of the climb. Where the climb comes out, head left for a short while, then right into the wood and onto the wide hiking path. The next part is easy walking, and finally brings you out by the chapel on the peak of San Salvatore (912 m).

Descent
Come down using the funicular (how else?). Most of the 200,000 visitors every year do exactly the same.
