Starta vid Högforsens kraftverksdamm eller i Lit. I Lit kan man antingen börja vid Campingen, där det finns orangeamarkeringar i form av pilar och prickar. Då kör man asfalt/grus till Sörefors och sen norrut för att ansluta till Högforsleden. Annars är den gamla starten vid tunneln under 45:an vid Norrgårdsvägens ände. Lite svårhittad start men stigen börjar direkt på östra sidan tunneln.
Den absolut finaste delen av leden är de första 4km från norr, med tallmostig utmed Hårkans branta flodstrand. De sista 4km mot Lit är av granskogstyp och går inte utmed Hårkan. Stigen är också mindre och på sommaren mer igenväxt. Dock bra markerad hela vägen.
