ジッフォーニセーカサリの峠・トップ5

From here begins the climb up the northern side of Mount Accellica

This is the Porta di monte Accellica (1250 m). My friend Alessandro, an expert on the mountain, told me that from this point begins "l'Accellica" and you notice it, especially in summer, with a significant change in temperature and wind.

ATTENTION, from this gap, on March 10, 2024 the path to "San Michele di Mezzo" after 200-300m was completely blocked by vegetation and thorny brambles. It was not possible to proceed even with shears and billhooks.

Located at an altitude of 770 meters, the intersection point between the CAI paths 176 and 176A, with the latter allowing you to close a ring circuit starting from San Michele di Basso.

You come across Varco della Teglia when you want to reach Tuppo dell'Uovo or Mount Mai. The Varco della Teglia overlooks the Vallone della Tornola to the north and is surmounted to the west by the bulk of the Tuppo dell'Uovo, a large and singular spire which owes its name to its ovoid shape. Here is the intersection with route no. 116. It can be reached shortly on the left leaving the wood among laburnum trees up a stony passage to reach the summit of Tuppo dell'Uovo (Toppo), from which Pizzo San Michele, Teminio, the Monti di Quarry and Monte Mai. Trekking clothing, sturdy shoes and mountaineering experience are required.

Intersection point of various paths.

Intersection point of the CAI 111 path from Barrizzullo and CAI 104 which leads up to the Accellica.
