Summit of Piglione Sud

Summit of Piglione Sud

The ridge of Monte Piglione

Arriving from Pascoso you follow a series of hairpin bends, tiring but suggestive to reach the Sella pass, just under 800 meters above sea level.

The mouth of the Crocione or, more commonly, the Termine, offers a spectacular panorama of the surrounding Apuan Alps and Versilia.

From the area you can enjoy a spectacular view of Versilia, between the southern Apuan Alps, with the ruins of a stone church from the early twentieth century which had already been dedicated to San Rocco. The altitude is about 930 meters above sea level.

Mount Piglione, in the municipality of Pescaglia, is the last peak of the southern Apuan Alps and is the easternmost. It is located on a ridge that branches off to the east from the mouth of the Crocione and divides the valley of the Tùrrite Cava in Garfagnana from that of the Rio Pedogna in the municipality of Pescaglia. The mountain consists of a mostly grassy ridge with rocks outcropping towards the west, it is oriented from north-west to south-east and culminates with three altitudes: to the north the main peak of 1233 metres, to the south the peak 1188 meters and in the center the summit 1190 meters. On the minor peak (south) there is a white cross erected on 13 August 1990 by three friends (Giuseppe, Silvio and Valerio) with the indication “M. Piglione here antesummit southeast m. 1188 Top 1233m”. It overlooks the plains of Lucca and Pisa.

Coming from Pescaglia, a suggestive climb is covered, almost always in the woods but very easy to pedal, about 5/6 km at an average 5/6% gradient until you reach Passo Sella, about 800 meters
