Gravel trail section. Cross the San Martino road to a beautiful S3 trail characterized by forest floor and stone passages. Turn right towards Ratschillhof at the gravel road and refresh yourself after some 500m.
By the way: This trail owes its name to this farm and not to its spicy characteristics! The second part of the trail ranges from root passages to hilly S3 sections and thus offers something for all trail enthusiasts. Look forward to the subsequent flatter flowing “Share the Trail” passage along Piani di Annenberg. Continue and before the suspension bridge on the left on path no. 5A downhill to Tiss.
