Estrada de Terra em Mata Coberta que serpenteia pela montanha até bifurcação para Cachoeira do Mingu. Subida rolada com inclinação constante, boa para aquecer o motor. Quando descendo, é um alívio para as pernas até chegar em Rio Acima. CUIDADO com trânsito de CARROS e motos que pode ser grande principalmente nos finais de semanas e feriados.
