North side of the climb to Montescaglioso coming from Matera, you start in the middle of a row of cypress trees, the road surface is very good and it is pleasant to climb between the curves, some parabolics, where slowly the view widens, Montescaglioso always remains in view at the top, especially the'Abbey of St. Michael Archangel, when the climb seems to end there's a bit at 10％ that can hurt if you have taken the climb at full throttle, then you come to a traffic circle that almost marks the end of the climb, 300-400 m of false-flat remains.

Versante da nord della salita a Montescaglioso provenendo da Matera, si parte in un mezzo a una fila di cipressi, il manto stradale è molto buono ed è piacevole salire tra i curvoni, alcuni parabolici, dove piano piano si allarga la veduta, Montescaglioso rimane sempre a vista in alto, in particolare l'Abbazia di San Michele Arcangelo, quando la salita sembra finire c'è un pezzo al 10％ che può far male se si è presa la salita a tutta, poi si arriva ad una rotatoria che segna quasi la fine della salita, rimangono 300-400 m di falsopiano.
