Passo di Fragno

This beautiful panoramic climb connects Calestano and Langhirano. The ascent is challenging from every side, but the view from the top repays the effort. At the top there are a couple of benches in the shade of gazebos.

From Calestano you reach the Passo di Fragno (850 masl) along a climb of about 6km, an average gradient of 7% and a difference in height of about 430+. The pass is located on the Baganza / Parma ridge.

Very panoramic point, the fixed gazebos on the top call for a moment of pause. The slope from Calestano is challenging, especially the first kilometres, challenging slopes on a straight and daunting road (there is a small fountain in the Fragno area). The other side, however, can be "attacked" from Langhirano, here too a challenging climb up to Cozzano, where you have some moments of recovery (there is a fountain), and then begins a more regular climb again in the last 2 km.
