• Downstream: just before the fork to Loveno (SP195 coming from Paisco), at a small chapel (46°03'56.5"N 10°15'49.8"E). • Upstream: with the other car, you can drive a couple of kilometers towards Passo del Vivione to the locality of Forno di Loveno, where there is a large parking area on the left (46°03'29.3"N 10°14'37.8"E).

• With shuttle: from the parking lot at Forno di Loveno (1170 m), descend among the huts to the Allione River, cross the bridge, and take the trail that descends along the river. After several ups and downs, the trail begins to climb until it crosses the Torrente Val Torta at about 1280 m (cairn), just before Malga Jai (46°03'36.07"N 10°15'53.06"E). The first waterfall of the route is just below. About 40 minutes (120 m ascent). • Without shuttle: continue along the paved road to Forno di Loveno. About 30 minutes for 140 m ascent (2 km).

Upon reaching the Allione River, climb the opposite bank via steep slopes, reaching directly the fork to Loveno and the lower parking lot (20 minutes). About 100 meters of elevation gain.

Flow assessment: from the lower parking lot, walk a short distance towards Loveno to view the central waterfalls of the route; binoculars are useful.
