A beautiful climb from Vignola Mare via Tempo Pausania in this area. This high point offers superb views of the coastline in a setting of former military antennas that looks like something out of a James Bond film. The 14km at around 6.5％ offers many twists and turns, mostly shaded, and a welcome respite at km 10.

Don't forget to fill up your water bottle at the Vallicciola fountain.

A great experience during my vacation in July 2025.

Belle ascension réalisée au départ de Vignola Mare en passant par Tempo Pausania à faire dans ce secteur.
Ce point culminant offre une vue superbe sur le littoral dans un cadre d'anciennes antennes militaires que l'on croirait sorti d'un film de James Bond.
Les 14km à environ 6.5％ offre de nombreux lacets, en grande partie ombragés et un répit bien venu au 10ème km. Le revêtement est correct et alterne parfois avec des zones endommagée, attention lors de la descente notamment.
Pensez également à faire le plein de bidon à la fontaine Vallicciola.

Très belle expérience durant mes vacances en juillet 2025
