Vom Parkplatz auf der Straße südwärts einige Meter zur Brücke. Vor der Brücke den Fußweg rechts, zunächst am Bach entlanfg, kommen wir zur Brücke über den Cholschlagerbach. Entweder hier einsteigen (so Baumgartner, Brunner, Betrisey) oder am Ostufer noch ein Stück aufwärts und dann an geeigneter Stelle in den Bach.
From the parking lot, follow the road southwards for a few meters to the bridge. Before the bridge, take the footpath to the right, initially along the stream, to the bridge over the Cholschlagerbach. Either get in here (Baumgartner, Brunner, Betrisey) or walk up the eastern bank a little further and then enter the stream at a suitable point.
