One of the steepest climbs in the Bologna hills. The start is easy from the viali: at the crossroads with via Putti, a first step to break your breath. Then an easier kilometre, before about 700 hard metres, a straight stretch with gradients close to 14-15%. At the top, you can continue south or descend via San Vittore; the first option is recommended.... read more

Tra le salite più ripide tra quelle dei colli bolognesi. Si parte agevolmente dai viali: arrivati al bivio co via Putti, un primo scalino per rompere il fiato. Poi un chilometro più facile, prima di 700 metri circa durissimi, un rettilineo con pendenze vicine al 14-15%. Arrivati in cima, si può proseguire verso sud o scendere da via San Vittore; consigliata la prima opzione.
