Almost 600 meters above sea level and overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, Monte Sant'Elia is a splendid panoramic point reachable by asphalt. From here you have a great view of Palmi and the Gioia Tauro plain, as well as the splendid Calabrian coast. It is part of the Aspromonte, of which it is a western offshoot.

From Nicotera to Nicotera Marina, continue along the Piana di Gioia Tauro. Continue along the state road. As soon as you enter Palmi, at the roundabout, follow the signs for Monte. Once you reach the top, turn right. The effort will be rewarded with a breathtaking view. To the north the Piana di Gioia Tauro and the Costa degli Dei, to the south the Strait of Messina, in front with the clear sky, the Aeolian Islands. What more could you want. The climb is not long and with a minimum of training, suitable for everyone. Done with a racing bike.

One of the iconic places of the place. Breathtaking panorama at the top of Mount S. Elis. To the north, you can see the entire Costa degli Dei, to the south the Strait of Messina. Not a difficult climb, perfect road.
