Queen of the Forest

The stretch starts from the crossroads for Secciano, Calenzano, and goes up to the Croci di Calenzano.
The first part, on asphalt, has slopes with peaks of 21/22% on average around 10/12 for the entire asphalted part.
Then at the last beautiful farmhouse you continue on a dirt/paved road but, with dry ground, you can do it without setting foot on the ground. The path/road is always wide and intuitive even if it has a couple of crossroads that can be misleading.
Along the dirt road there is a well-marked crossroads that leads to Valobona, a small uninhabited village where the, unfortunately famous, massacre by the Nazi-fascists took place!
Continue without turning along the dirt road for a couple of km and then return to the asphalt road up to the Croci di Calenzano.
