Pantani and the cippus of Carpegna

If you love cycling, the cippo della Carpegna is an experience not to be forgotten! This is where the great Romagna cyclist Marco Pantani used to come to train. 6 km of pure fatigue with slopes that can reach peaks of 18/20%: a short but very hard climb capable of breaking even the most experienced athletes. Also known as "Il Cippo", the road climbs Mount Carpegna through woods and green meadows until it reaches the giant statue dedicated to the Pirate. From there you can admire a breathtaking view that overlooks the Republic of San Marino, Mount Fumaiolo and Mount Aquilone, the Marecchia valley and on clear days even the Adriatic Sea.
