The second leg is 3.5 kilometres long with a height difference
of 200 metres. The highest point is reached on the ridge between
Schiara and Pozai. Average completion time for the path is
one hour and a half. The path begins with stairs beginning
near the fountain of
Campiglia, climbing up through the vines and into a pinewood.
At a height of 510 metres one meets a dirt track leading to
an area known as 'Palestra Verde' (Green Gymnasium) a stretch
of 2.5 kilometres with 15 stops for gymnastic exercises. While,
by taking a 500 metre detour on path n°4 - which connects
Biassa and Schiara - in the Crocetta area, at 482 metres height,
one can find the Tramonti menhir. It is a 2.5 metre high rock
stuck into the ground with a large iron cross, probably dating
back to the Bronze age, which could have had primitive astronomical
functions. The Colle del Telegrafo bush (513 metres high)
is another crossroads of paths.
