The climb starts in the municipality of Sesto Fiorentino, more precisely in the hamlet of Colonnata
It begins gradually with gentle slopes up to the locality of Ulivo rosso, here the real ascent begins!
A first climb of about 600 metres with gradients of over 14％ accompanies us to the first hairpin bend after which the gradients descend, on average 6/7％ with peaks at 10％ up to the first col
At Morello, where there is a restaurant bar with excellent cuisine, the road flattens out for a few metres and then steepens to gradients of over 20％
Fortunately, the stretch is short, about 600 metres, then the climb continues for about 4 km with decidedly bearable gradients up to Piazzale Leonardo Da Vinci, the highest point of the climb and from where you can admire a beautiful panorama over the plain of Florence

La salita parte dal comune di Sesto Fiorentino più precisamente dalla frazione di Colonnata
Inizia gradualmente con pendenze dolcì fino a località Ulivo rosso, qui inizia l’ascesa vera e propria!
Un primo strappo di circa 600 metri con pendenze oltre il 14％ ci accompagna al primo tornante dopodiché le pendenze scendono , mediamente 6/7％ con punte al 10％ fino al primo scollino
In località Morello dove è situato un bar ristorarente con ottima cucina, la strada spiana per qualche mentro per poi impennarsi fino a raggiungere pendenze oltre il 20％
Fortunatamente il tratto è breve circa 600 metri poi la salita prosegue per circa 4 km con pendenze decisamente abbordabili fino al piazzale Leonardo Da Vinci punto più alto della salita e da dove si può ammirare un panorama bellissimo sulla piana di Firenze
