BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE ROUTE
The route rolls in Parma’s hills with only one proper climb: Fragno Pass (62.km / 6.8% average gradient).
Technical info
The course winds its way through the valleys of the Baganza stream and Parma River, on low-traffic roads and many views. Towers and castles surround an itinerary through the places where famous salami are produced, such as Felino salami or Langhirano ham. You are going to ride on some of the roads included in the 1991 Collecchio-Langhirano time trial, won by Gianni Bugno – unrelentingly undulating roads, except for short stretches along the rivers, with few villages along them.
On Fragno Pass you find an equipped rest area with scenic outlook over the valleys.
NOTES:
There are countless places in which to stop and eat along the way.
ROUTE CHANGES DURING YOUR RIDE:
You can break the route into two loops. One, from Langhirano, returns to Felino without negotiating the short Costa climb (2.2km). Another one, from Traversetolo, goes directly to Langhirano, possibly without crossing the Parma River, drawing a loop of just over 25 km.
