フォンタネーリチェの峠・トップ4

Panoramic view near the pass that separates Val Sintria from the Senio Valley, ascending from what is called Via Cerro on both sides. The view is truly remarkable, as is often the case in this area’s hills when exceeding 550 meters in altitude. ========== Panoramic view near the pass that separates Val Sintria from the Senio Valley, ascending from what is called Via Cerro on both sides.

beautiful climb with little traffic and spectacular views

Erroneously called "Passo del Prugno"

mistakenly called "the Prugno pass", the Corso is a Via Romea, there was an ancient convent that gave hospitality to pilgrims.

The road would be very beautiful, since August 2023 it has been interrupted 2 km from the junction for Monte Battaglia, due to landslides due to bad weather in May 2023

The climb to the Paretaio pass from Coniale is long and not trivial: ten kilometers with an average gradient of 6%, making it one of the toughest climbs in the whole province of Florence.

Beautiful road that crosses the "Parco Regionale della Vena del Gesso", the asphalt is in good condition for most of the way. Panoramic road with beautiful views on the walls of the chalky ramparts.

Also known as the lavender road, a plant that grows spontaneously along the roadside path and, particularly on the Senio side, is cultivated in small gardens along the roadside. The Pass can be reached from Casola Valsenio in 5.65 km or from Fontanelice in 6.9 km, both sides have regular climbs, without excessive peaks. A further alternative from the side of the Senio is the 7.6 km road which passes just upstream of Casola Valsenio through the hamlet of San Ruffillo and then joins up at the top with the road which runs along the two main sides.
