Once in Fiumalbo, it is much better to leave the main road, descend into the village and take the Fontalecchio road that leads to the Bar Alpino and then to Abetone. It is 2 km longer but much less busy and spectacularly scenic.... read more

Arrivati a Fiumalbo e' molto meglio lasciiare la strada principale, scendere in paese e prendere la strada Fontalecchio che porta al Bar Alpino e poi all'Abetone. Si allunga di 2 km ma e' molto meno trafficata e paesaggisticamente spettacolare.

An almost always rideable climb that leads from the north to one of the most famous Apennine passes. The middle section is particularly easy, the beginning and end are slightly harder, but never impossible.

Ideal to be covered in a ring that also includes the San Pellegrino in Alpe, ideally placing the latter first (starting, for example, from Bagni di Lucca, or from Castelnuovo di Garfagnana).

Salita pressoché sempre pedalabile che conduce da nord a uno dei passi appenninici più celebri. Il tratto intermedio è particolarmente agevole, sono leggermente più duri, ma mai impossibili, l'inizio e la fine.

Ideale da percorrere in un anello che include anche il San Pellegrino in Alpe, idealmente ponendo quest'ultimo per prima (partendo per esempio da Bagni di Lucca, o da Castelnuovo di Garfagnana).
