Another hidden gem in the Euganean Hills, unknown to most but really not to be missed. You start in Cinto Euganeo, climbing up next to the church and already finding a gradient of around 10%. Then you continue towards Fonfanafredda but at the top instead of going downhill you turn right towards Località Santa Lucia, where the real climb begins. Varying gradients, a narrow road on good asphalt and an increasingly wooded setting make the ascent more and more fascinating. In the second half, aft... read more

Another hidden gem in the Euganean Hills, unknown to most but really not to be missed. You start in Cinto Euganeo, climbing up next to the church and already finding a gradient of around 10%. Then you continue towards Fonfanafredda but at the top instead of going downhill you turn right towards Località Santa Lucia, where the real climb begins. Varying gradients, a narrow road on good asphalt and an increasingly wooded setting make the ascent more and more fascinating. In the second half, after a left-hand bend, you face two hundred metres close to 15%, the hardest on the route. Then the panorama opens up and the last stretch is all in the sun until the finish near Villa Beatrice, located at the top of Mount Gemola. Continuing to the right, you descend towards Valle San Giorgio, while going straight ahead is the wonderful route up Monte Fasolo to the Mottolone plateau, an option reserved, however, for gravel or mountain bikes. All in all, a beautiful climb both from a panoramic and technical point of view and easy to find. I just hope I have not enticed too many tourists, that silence is one of the most beautiful characteristics of these places.

Un'altra perla nascosta negli Euganei, sconosciuta ai più ma davvero da non perdere. Si inizia da Cinto Euganeo, salendo accanto alla chiesa e trovando già una pendenza intorno al 10%. Poi si prosegue verso Fonfanafredda ma allo scollinamento invece che andare in discesa si volta a destra verso la Località Santa Lucia, dove inizia la vera salita. Pendenze variabili, strada stretta su buon asfalto e un'ambientazione sempre più immersa nel bosco rendono via via sempre più affascinante l'ascesa. Nella seconda metà, dopo una curva a sinistra si affrontano duecentro metri prossimi al 15%, i più duri del tracciato. Poi il panorama si apre e l'ultimo tratto è tutto al sole fino all'arrivo in prossimità di Villa Beatrice, posta in cima al monte Gemola. Proseguendo a destra si scende verso Valle San Giorgio, a diritto invece se percorre la stupenda via che porta sul Monte Fasolo fino al pianoro del Mottolone, opzione riservata però alle gravel o alle mountain bike. In definitiva una salita bellissima sia dal punto di vista panoramico che tecnico e facile da trovare. Spero solo di non avere invogliato troppi turisti, che il silenzio è una delle caratteristiche più belle di questi luoghi.
