Roverello Pass in the heart of the Euganean Hills (269 m) / Province of Padua / Veneto Region The Roverello Pass lies in the heart of the Euganean Hills on the SP99 provincial road from Galzignano Terme to Fontanafredda. This pass can also be reached by taking the narrow side road south from Valico del Roccolo towards Arquà Petrarca. Thus, the pass lies on both an east-west and a north-south route through this magnificent volcanic landscape in the middle of the Po Valley. The pass is situated between the highest peak of the Euganean Hills, Monte Venda (601 m) to the north, and Monte Peraro (376 m) to the south. Near the summit, there is a small parking area with tables and benches, perfect for a short break.

View from Roccolo on the northern side of the Euganean Hills including: Grande, Pirlo, Arrigon, Lonzina, Sengiari and further down Rosso and Ortone. From here several paths start including a section of the Alta Via (accessible by mountain bike), just behind the Al Roccolo restaurant, which runs along the Baiamonte and finally comes out near the Trattoria Alla Chiesa in Castelnuovo.

2km of very hard terrain

Tuesday closed

Trattoria immersed in the unique beauty of the Eugenie hills, offers tasty dishes, special cured meats and excellent local wine. Recommended.

Coming from the cingolina, you reach Roverello, an important cycling point and crossroads of the hills. Turn left towards Arquà, with a tough climb, right at Roccolo and then down via Cicogna Pirio…
