È la salita dei mondiali 2013, facile fino a San Domenico, poi quasi due km sopra il 6%. Purtroppo trafficata, è la strada per Fiesole più frequentata. Attenzione in discesa ai tombini con buca in mezzo alla strada

I would much rather recommend the same climb through Vincigliata - less trafficked and more scenic. It's amongst my favorite climbs for shorter interval sessions from Florence.

The climb starts at the northern end of Firenze.There is moderate traffic. Well worth the effort, though I have found prettier ways up to Fiesole.
