カスティリオーネデイペポリの峠・トップ10

In the Middle Ages it was the highway that connected northern Italy with the south (in particular trade with Milan and the Church with Rome)

During the summer weekends it is a land of roaring motorbikes but during the week the SS65 of Futa is a paradise of peace and beauty to be enjoyed by bicycle, it is automatic to stop at the Passo della Raticosa and enjoy the view, clean air and peace and the bar is a good excuse to delay as much as possible the departure from that mystical place...

Fascinating forest, but don't go down from Gazzarro by bike

Antico Passo dell' Osteria Bruciata, coming from Bologna on the Via degli Dei you have made the greatest difference in altitude

done the trail in 5 days alone in July 2023, no comment can give an idea of the feeling of happiness, freedom, tension..... I met many guys (and this gives me the idea that the future will be better than what we elderly people leave).... I cried upon arriving in Piazza della Signoria..... as I have already posted "if you have someone you don't love tell them to take the path, if instead you have someone you who you love tell them to do it... in any case they will thank you".

One of the most famous passes in the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, it is very popular with those who walk or cycle. It is located on the Alta Via dei Parchi and has three asphalted sides: Frassineta and Monghidoro on the Bolognese side, Pietramala on the Tuscan side. At the top there is the Chalet Raticosa, where it is possible to stop and refresh.

Between a farmhouse and a lake of the same name, the panoramic Passeggere pass is located in the municipality of Firenzuola, in the upper Mugello valley. The name is thought to derive from "passeggeria", or place of great passage, since the times of the Roman road Flaminia Militare and the medieval mule track, according to a route still retraced today by those who walk on the Via degli Dei and the Alta Via dei Parks.
