      Questo Trail può essere considerato come la prima parte della lunghissima discesa che, unendo più trails, conduce fino a Torricella/Taverne.
      È anche probabilmente la parte più impegnativa di tale discesa.

      Il Trail inizia con una parte impegnativa: sentiero largo cima con tratti tecnici su roccia. Malgrado la larghezza, occorre prestare attenzione perché sulla destra l'esposizione è forte.
      Giunti alla bocchetta tra Motto Rotondo e vetta del Tamaro, si passa su versante Est del Tamaro, che si taglia in diagonale su sentiero sempre esposto, più stretto ma anche più facile rispetto al tratto precedente. Il Trail termina appena sotto la Bassa di Indemini, dove cambia nome e diventa decisamente più facile.
