It takes some effort to reach it, but don't give up; even on foot or on all fours try to reach the top. The effort will be rewarded.

Embark on the Campo di Croce and Monte Faeta Loop Trail for a challenging mountain biking adventure that spans 15.3 miles (24.6 km). This difficult route will test your endurance with a significant elevation gain of 2976 feet (907 metres), typically completed in about 2 hours and 48 minutes. You will ride through varied terrain, from paved sections to rugged dirt roads and exciting singletrack, offering a dynamic experience for skilled riders.
This demanding loop requires very good fitness and advanced riding skills, so come prepared for a strenuous outing. Be aware that some technical sections, particularly on the ascent towards Monte Faeta, feature steep gradients and loose rocks, which might require you to push your bike. While e-bikes can offer some assistance, managing the route without electric support is quite a workout.
One of the standout features of this trail is the Monte Faeta Summit View, where you can enjoy expansive panoramic vistas of Pisa, the Arno river, and the distant sea. On clear days, you might even spot the island of Gorgona. As you approach Monte Faeta from Campo di Croce, you will also pass through a beautiful fir forest, known locally as an abetaia, adding a distinct natural element to your ride.
