アランノのおすすめライド

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。

13キロメートルの登りの後、それは本当に非常にありがたい休憩場所です

非常に厳しい登り坂で、息をつく場所はほとんどなく、14%の急勾配が長く続く箇所がいくつかあります。しかし、景色は本当に美しく、登り切ったときの達成感は格別です。

Refuge open only in summer.

The history of the Eddy Merckx Monument, located in Roccamorice on the ramps leading to the Blockhaus, is a tale that inextricably links the Belgian champion to the Maiella massif, celebrating both sporting glory and human generosity. Its roots lie in a day that changed the history of mountain cycling: a stage of the 1970 Giro d'Italia, the first time the Giro challenged the summit of the Blockhaus. On that occasion, a young Merckx—soon known as the "Cannibal"—accomplished a momentous feat, outlasting all his opponents and securing a victory that became legendary. But it was a gesture that followed the victory that cemented the community's affection: it is said that Merckx, immediately after his triumph, donated the prize money to charity. To honor this dual legacy, sporting and moral, and in anticipation of the centennial of the Giro d'Italia, the municipality of Roccamorice promoted the erection of a monument. The work was created by local craftsman Franco Aceto and sculpted from the typical white Maiella stone, and was inaugurated on May 13, 2017. Since then, the monument has become a landmark and a true cycling sanctuary for all who tackle the climb, a tangible symbol of the strength, history, and altruism that have transformed the Blockhaus into a timeless legend.

It lacks nothing to be compared to many of the great Alpine climbs, 8% average for 19.6 from Roccamorice, the hardest and most panoramic side

The last part of the climb is closed to traffic and therefore very quiet.
