Classic side to climb Monte Serra, one of the most famous and popular climbs among Tuscan cyclists. The climb from Calci is about 12 km long with a difference in altitude of 850 meters to get close to the antennas. It is a challenging climb, with an average gradient of 7% but with peaks in double figures. Splendid views of the Pisan plain.

climb from Calci. penultimate hairpin bend uphill or second hairpin bend downhill. The view is truly fantastic 😍 below is Pisa, to your left Livorno, and then there is the beautiful view of the Tyrrhenian coast, on clear days you can see the islands, you can even see the finger of Corsica, but it happens 2/3 times a year, you have to be really lucky. it happens after a storm and with the wind that manages to carry away the fog
