ボルゴサンロレンツォの峠・トップ13

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)

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

The pass is located in the municipality of Borgo San Lorenzo, in the province of Florence, at 913 m above sea level, along the former state road 302 Brisighellese Ravennate. It takes its name from the hamlet of Casaglia, which is the first town you come across when descending from the Romagna side. The former Alpe di Casaglia state road 477 branches off from the pass in a northerly direction and, after passing the nearby Sambuca Pass, descends the Senio valley.

Still closed (June 2024) and, I think forever, the old Bar-Restaurant. However, a bar is now open next door, on the side of the pass that leads towards Palazzuolo.

A classic for runners, cyclists and motorcyclists alike. The Bar Nido d'Allocco is the best for a stop based on flatbread, sandwiches, juices, beer, wine and so on and so forth....

Navigating the ancient pass of the Osteria Bruciata along the Via degli Dei is a venture into the heart of history. This age-old trail, etched into the landscape, weaves through the undulating hills and verdant valleys of the Italian countryside, connecting past and present in a seamless dance. The Osteria Bruciata, a name resonating with the resonance of ancient inns and resting places, adds a layer of nostalgia to the journey. In its heyday, weary travelers would have sought solace and sustenance within its walls, forging connections and sharing stories that became woven into the fabric of the Via degli Dei.
