Climb to Montescaglioso from the South

Highlight • Climb

This 8km climb towards Montescaglioso begins from the south, on the road leading to Ginosa. It's a gentle, low-traffic road through the countryside, with no unusual houses, all the way to the finish line. The average gradient is 3.5%.

Santa Maria del Vetrano

Highlight • Castle

An ancient farmhouse now in disuse that seems to take the form of a castle with its large tower.

Bernalda Castle and Church of San Bernardino

Highlight • Castle

Municipality in the Basento valley of around 12,000 inhabitants, Bernalda boasts a characteristic historic center which stands on a plateau sloping towards the sea. From here it is splendid to observe the Ionian Sea and the hamlet of Metaponto. Also of particular beauty are the church of San Bernardino and the castle of Bernalda, probably built by the Normans.

Climb to Bernalda

Highlight • Climb

From the Bradanica pass, the road climbs for 2.6 km at an average gradient of 5% to reach the top of Bernalda. The climb will be resurfaced for long stretches in May 2025 for the Giro d'Italia, but given the traffic, caution is still advised.

After 1 p.m., the climb is shaded for long stretches, thus avoiding excessive heat.

Piazza Roma, Montescaglioso

Highlight • Settlement

The square at the top of the village, still decorated for the feast of San Rocco, the town's patron saint. From the square, a road leads to the old town, a well-established place to visit, all the way to the viewpoint overlooking the countryside to the north, a little-known gem.
Around the square, there are several fountains for refueling and bars for a tasty break!
