The 3.3 km long and lighted circular trail consists of two loops. The first one leads from the sports center out onto a plain in the direction of Prà da Punt (about 1 km). Afterwards you cross the Spölbach and can tackle the second loop. This leads over a short but intense ramp up to the edge of the forest where it then goes back towards Zernez and after a rapid descent back to the starting point. (The lighting can be switched on manually).
