アウッラの峠・トップ5

Passo Alpicella is located at 710m above sea level and is part of the 42nd stage of the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri. It is located on the watershed ridge between Val di Vara and Valle del Magra, offering open views that on clear days reach the Apuan Alps and the Gulf of Poets.

I pass on the crest between Comano and Fivizzano, from Comano the climb is short but with gradients constantly in double figures. At the top a wide view of Groppi di Camporaghena.

First the Renzhoffer starts with a fun up and down then after passing the asphalt road the Ca Di Piola starts, a very fast downhill path. A beautiful combination to return to the valley

ALPICELLA PASS WHICH DIVIDES LIGURIA FROM TUSCANY PHOTO OF THE OLD RESTAURANT

Between Carrara and Castelpoggio, this panoramic road allows you to go towards the sea, proceed towards the Garfagnana or head towards the splendid Campocecina.

Two fairly technical single tracks, but not impossible. Absolutely to try, fun guaranteed.

Ascent of Castelpoggio towards Campocecina

Passing the white marble quarries of Carrara you pedal along this little mountain road towards Fosdinovo. You overcome 550 meters in altitude. In summery temperatures sure a proper job. Luckily, you come through several small towns where you can take a little break and do something about hunger and thirst. Glorious on this route are the views and the Mediterranean landscape. A true race bike dream!
