The section is classified as difficulty T4 according to the Komoot route planner, which is absolutely exaggerated. It is a typical mountain hiking trail without any significant danger. You don't have to be free from giddiness, but you should be sure-footed. The short passage, which is secured with chains, does not particularly increase the level of difficulty. Anyone who has felt comfortable on the path to the chains has no problems with that either. In general, clearly T2 in terms of difficulty. The hiking maps of the GR221 also suggest this. But definitely a very nice way!

The short section of the hiking trail secured with chains is only about 10-15 meters long and covers a height of 4-5 meters, so I would hardly call it a via ferrata.Sure-footedness is required, but the terrain is not very exposed and I would not classify the section as dangerous/challenging in the context of the hike.

Great views in both directions - to Puig Major and the table mountains.
