Gran percorso di notevole difficoltà ed esposizione, in particolare nel primo tratto dopo la partenza (Punto panoramico del Musinè - ca 750m - facilmente raggiungibile da una deviazione dalla Seconda pista Tagliafuoco). Diventa più semplice ma sempre piuttosto tecnico nella seconda metà.
La traccia è molto evidente, piuttosto stretta nella prima parte, per allargarsi nella seconda metà.
Pendenze mai estreme.

Access Info

Dalla seconda pista Tagliafuoco del Musinè (parcheggio Rivera di Almese) si risalgono le rampe verso sinistra (direzione nord) fino al bivio segnalato per "Punto Panoramico". La pendenza aumenta e con 4 tornati si arriva all'area picnic a quota 750m circa da cui parte il trail.
