Quite a tough and long climb. You have to consider that the information here on Climbfinder is incorrect. First of all, considering that you often start from Mercogliano and that you generally do not reach the top of the mountain but stop at the Monastery, the climb is 17 km long with an average gradient of 5% and maximums of around 12%. This climb considering how hot it gets in summer is advisable to do it in the 6am to 8am time slot if you do not want to suffer from the heat.

Salita abbastanza dura e lunga. Bisogna considerare che qui su Climbfinder le informazioni sono scorrette. Prima di tutto, considerando che si parte spesso da Mercogliano e che generalmente non si arriva fino in cima al monte ma ci si ferma al Monastero la salita è lunga 17 km con pendenza media del 5% e massime che si aggirano sul 12%. Questa salita considerando quanto caldo fa in estate è consigliabile farla nella fascia oraria che va dalle 6 alle 8 del mattino se non si vuole soffrire dal caldo.

Mid difficulty climb that takes you to an ancient monastery with a great landscape. Mid difficulty with some steeper segments towards the end. A lot of threes and shade. Great in summer to get some fresh air.
