Nice asphalted road on abandoned railway track with a constant slope of 2% and very little traffic. The few tunnels on this segment have dim lights and are large enough for cars and bicycles to pass through.

The first tunnel on the Monreale side, just before the start of the marked section, is abandoned, not illuminated and blocked by waste. Make sure Komoot doesn't guide you from there to enter this segment.
