Trilha que por um lado começa no Morro do Careca e termina na estrada de terra da Vale para o retorno a Rio Acima via Escolinha. Uma das paisagens mais lindas do Gandarela. Areia, rock garden técnico muito divertido A subida no estradão é longa e dura, mas rolável. Atuamente há uma cancela da mineradora em que um funcionário pode pedir identificação. Água potável no córrego do final do single track.
