To reach the starting point of the climb, you have to descend to the parking area near the old fishing village nestled in a large cave. I highly recommend walking a few steps to reach this incredible place, which will leave you speechless, and I am not exaggerating. The climb is sparsely trafficked and it is very difficult to bump into cars, and thank goodness because climbing this steep tongue of asphalt will really require a lot of concentration and I would advise against it for those who do not have a good workout: the numbers on this climb speak for themselves!
Salita davvero molto dura situata in un contesto paesaggistico tra i più belli dell'isola. per raggiungere il punto di partenza della salita bisogna scendere fino alla piazzola di parcheggio in prossimità dell'antico villaggio di pescatori incastonato in una grandissima grotta, consiglio vivamente di fare qualche passo a piedi per raggiungere questo luogo incredibile che vi lascerà a bocca aperta e non esagero. La salita è scarsamente trafficata ed è molto difficile imbattersi in auto e meno male perché risalire questa lingua di asfalto così ripida vi richiederà davvero molta concentrazione e mi sento di sconsigliarla a chi non ha un buon allenamento: i numeri di questa salita parlano chiaro!
