Steady gradients, never exceeding 10%. A few beautiful views, but for the most part the route winds through the woods. The road surface is in good condition, and there’s little traffic. Vincigliata Castle is worth a stop.... read more

Pendenze costanti, mai sopra il 10%. Qualche scorcio bello, per lo più però si snoda nel bosco. Asfalto buono, poco trafficata. Merita una sosta il Castello di Vincigliata
