4x4 vehicles can be parked in the forest of witches but you have to be careful not to obstruct the road for other vehicles or residents and for small vehicles you can park on Acueducto Street #2 at the ends of that street, without obstructing the road, this will add an extra 4 kilometers of travel to the route and 4 kilometers back.

The path is very marked and it's hard to get lost. A key point to be aware of is that right at the beginning of the tour, there are several junctions (Y's), which can divert you from the route. In the same way, the wikiloc waypoints indicate all the junctions and the direction to which you have to go.
