After the formidable climb of the Castellare (with peaks of up to 21%), you arrive at Piazzale Leonardo. Here it is possible to unwind from the efforts by eating something at the Caravanserraglio restaurant and enjoying a splendid view over the Florentine plain. On clear days, it is also possible to see the Apuan Alps.
