This is the final climb of the Granfondo La Medievale, which starts in the main square of Tivoli and ends in San Polo. The bit on the small road just after Santa Balbina is really steep! Once you get to the main road, the gradient becomes much more pleasant. Lovely views from San Polo once you get to the top!... read more
