A nice wall in Bologna, it sticks out just off the boulevards, near the Rizzoli hospital. The average gradient shown here is a little misleading, because it includes a final easier section, after the church of the Osservanza, which leads to the gate of a private home.

For film buffs, on the right just before the junction with Via Gaibola is Villa Aldini, in whose park Pasolini shot some scenes of Salò or the 120 days of Sodom.

Bel muro bolognese, si attacca appena fuori dai viali, nei pressi dell'ospedale Rizzoli.
La pendenza media riportata qui inganna un po', perché include un ultimo tratto più facile, dopo la chiesa dell'Osservanza, che porta al cancello di un'abitazione privata. Se si esclude quello, si ha un chilometro netto con pendenze ben sopra il 10%, e punte al 17-18%,
Per i cinefili, sulla destra poco prima del bivio con via Gaibola si trova Villa Aldini, nel cui parco Pasolini girò alcune scene di Salò o le 120 giornate di Sodoma.

Close to the centre of Bologna. Once you leave the traffic of the boulevards and Via San mamolo, you find yourself in a special atmosphere. Intense from the very first metres. I had never noticed "the ending" thinking it ended at the church.

Vicina al centro di Bologna. Lasciato il traffico dei viali e di via San mamolo ci si trova in una atmosfera particolare. Intensa fin dai primi metri. Non avevo mai notato "il finale" pensando finisse alla chiesa.
