I climbed it last summer, while I was travelling to the sea in the province of La Spezia from my hometown of Varese. I remember looking up every possible route on google maps to avoid a long climb 😅. But I gave up, realising that I would have to climb over the Apennines somewhere, so I decided to do it from Ghiare towards Berceto.

I climbed it last summer, while I was travelling to the sea in the province of La Spezia from my hometown of Varese. I remember looking up every possible route on google maps to avoid a long climb 😅. But I gave up, realising that I would have to climb over the Apennines somewhere, so I decided to do it from Ghiare towards Berceto. A place I already knew, having driven through a few times, and having stopped to eat in its restaurants, where porcino ❤ is the basis of their culinary products.
Well, the climb was quite tough for yours truly, having previously racked up some kilometres due to the state of my legs. I remember that I stopped several times, and between the effort and the heat, I drank several litres of water. Anyway, I recommend the climb, the views I remember were pretty, plus the vivid advice to stop and eat in one of its restaurants 😉.

Salita percorsa l'estate scorsa, mentre dalla mia Varese mi recavo in provincia di La Spezia al mare. Mi ricordo che su google maps ho cercato ogni possibile percorso per evitare di compiere una lunga salita 😅. Ma mi sono arreso, rendendomi conto che l'Appennino da qualche parte avrei dovuto scavalcarlo, quindi ho deciso di farlo da Ghiare verso Berceto. Località che conoscevo già, essendoci passato alcune volte in macchina, ed essermi fermato per mangiare nei suoi ristoranti, dove il porcino ❤ è la base dei loro prodotti culinari.
Be la salita è stata abbastanza dura per il sottoscritto avendo già in precedenza accumulato un po di chilometri per lo stato di allenamento delle mie gambe. Mi ricordo che mi sono fermato parecchie volte, e tra lo sforzo e il caldo mi sono bevuto parecchi litri d'acqua. Comunque la salita la consiglio, il panorama mi ricordo che era carino, oltre al vivido consiglio di fermarvi a mangiare in uno dei suoi ristoranti 😉.
