The route of trail 332 (Monte Cavallo)

From La Forca the trail climbs straight away: 110 m of elevation gain in the first 900 meters. On this section, which coincides with trail 302, it meets the Fonte Sambuco spring, a few meters from the path, at km 0.8. About 300 meters away, off the trail, the Cascata del Rio waterfall is marked.

After leaving trail 302, trail 332 reaches its highest point, 1,336 m, at km 1.2. The rest is a gentle descent of just over one kilometer to the Fonte Mara, where it rejoins the Sentiero Italia.

Trail 332 (Monte Cavallo) technical details

A comparison with the main route shows what it is for. Between La Forca and the Fonte Mara, the Sentiero Italia descends to Pantaneto (about 1,000 m) and climbs back up: about 5.2 km, with 200 m of descent and 250 of ascent. Trail 332 makes the same connection in 2.4 km while staying high. It is the one to take when there is no need to stop over in Pantaneto.
