Access is via the MT-251, turning right at Km 8, along a paved road for 7 km, giving way to an unpaved stretch of less than 1 km of dirt road. There is a snack bar, cafeteria and restrooms at the reception, where meals can be ordered. It is possible to reach the viewpoint by car, a fact that makes the place accessible to the elderly, children and people with disabilities.
