El tramo 2 actualmente no se puede decir que sea accesible, e incluso habría que decir que es peligroso si se va en silla de ruedas. El portón de acceso no es accesible por lo estrecho del espacio entre los pivotes. A partir de ahí, terreno irregular, con zonas complicadas, el acceso a las estructuras de madera tienen peldaños difícilmente salvables, y en los puentes de madera hay listones que sobresalen hacia arriba y que igualmente resultan complicados. Necesita un adecuado mantenimiento.
