East side of the ascent to Montescaglioso coming from Ginosa, the climb begins in the midst of pine trees, then there are a series of very scenic bends, with views also of the gullies, finally three straight stretches leading to a stone fountain (there is usually water) and then the last stretch leads to the fountain at the end of the road, before arriving in the main square.

Versante da est della salita a Montescaglioso provenendo da Ginosa, la salita inizia in mezzo ai pini, poi ci sono una serie di curvoni molto panoramici, con veduta anche sui calanchi, infine 3 rettilinei che conducono ad una fontana in pietra (di solito c'è acqua) e poi l'ultimo strappo conduce alla fontana alla fine della strada, prima di arrivare nella piazza principale.
