The spino-olivary tract is located in the ventral funiculus of the spinal cord. This tract carries proprioception information from muscles and tendons as well as cutaneous impulses to the olivary nucleus.This is a non-specific indirect ascending pathway and is connected to olivary nuclei in the brain.The axons enter the spinal cord from the posterior(dorsal) root ganglion and terminate on unknown second-order neurons in the posterior grey column.
