セッラモナチェスカの峠・トップ8

アブルッツォ州とその隣接地域ラツィオ州の住民は、このPasso Lancianoにまつわる独自のローカルな観察結果を持っています。春に太陽が力強いマジェッラ山塊の後ろに沈むと、アブルッツォ側（つまりPasso Lancianoがある場所）はすぐに暗くなり、夕暮れが訪れますが、山の反対側、ラツィオ州ではまだ明るい昼間が続いています。地元の人々は、同じ瞬間にイタリアの半分が眠りにつき、もう半分がアペリティーボに行くのだと冗談を言っています。

The climb to Blockhaus from Scafa is considered one of the hardest in Italy. It is a very long climb (about 30 km) with 2000 meters of altitude difference. The hardest section begins after Roccamorice: about 10-11 km with average gradients constantly above 9% and long stretches at 12-14%. The road is narrow in places.

Between Mounts Blockhaus and Acquaviva, this ridge allows you to walk well above 2,000 meters and observe the splendid natural beauty of the Majella. Within the Majella National Park, Acquaviva is the second highest peak after Monte Amaro.

Good destination to replenish your water supply

Passo Lanciano connects the two Abruzzo villages of Pretoro and Lettomanoppello. It is a place much loved by the locals, both in the summer and in the winter months: in fact, various hiking trails start from here and there are ski slopes. There is no shortage of restaurants where you can eat the typical arrosticini.

One of the most famous climbs in Abruzzo.

very famous track... this is where Eddy Merckx's rise to fame began with a glamorous mountain stage win at the 1974 Giro! ...a unique opportunity to climb around 2000 m in one go! you can drive to the top of the blockhouse to the end of the tar, after all the rifugios! ;-)

A beautiful scenic route to take on the way to or from the Blockhaus mountain. It leads to Passo Lanciano from Lettomanoppello.
