View of the Marble Quarries and Coast from Campocecina

Highlight • Viewpoint

Climb that ends and no outlet.
You can enjoy a beautiful panldamal on Carrara and the sea.
The climb is tough up to the first village but then flattens going up in an irregular but feasible way.

August 1, 2025, Le cave di marmo di Carrara

The climb was definitely challenging for me, but in the end the view repays the effort.
