A long day out in the hills. 10x400m vertical gain is also 4000HM.
It was quite technical, especially the second part. Relentless up&downs, never a kilometer to get into a running flow.
Some observations:
- 90% very well signed, when in doubt, follow the signs, some paths might have shifted compared to the gpx file
- around km20: difficult to find the entry to the path that enters a small valley. follow the gpx; going out of this valley are beautiful waterfalls
- around km45: This damn extra loop around Mt. Buddelone: first, I couldn't find the start of the trail, when you come back its obvious, it is parallel to the asphalt road. Then the industrial area: I couldn't find the left turn up, so suddenly I was at the industrial area. I followed the track to the rock climbers area and followed it below the rock until the path was visible again. Quite technical and HOT!
- there are sufficient springs on the way! I had 3x500ml and refilled every time a spring was availbable
thanks to Enrico for sharing his thoughts! It helped me a little bit, but I made many of his mistakes as well
