Recomendada de mayo a octubre. Antes de la construcción del teleférico era el camino usado para salvar el gran desnivel entre el Pla de Sallente y el Estany Gento. Sube en zig-zag por el Canal de Pigolo hasta llegar a la vía del antiguo tren de vagonetas 'el carrilet' y que en dirección norte llega hasta el Estany Gento.
