View of the Sanctuary of San Luca

Highlight • Viewpoint

Once you reach the sanctuary of San Luca from the classic and more difficult side, the one with the famous Curva delle Orfanelle that begins under the Arco del Meloncello, after a few hundred meters a wonderful glimpse opens up towards the sanctuary. It is a fascinating panoramic point, but pay attention to the narrow road.

Shrine of Our Lady of St. Luke

Highlight • Religious Site

The Sanctuary of the Madonna di San Luca is a wonderful place in all seasons. It offers a 360 ° view of the surrounding landscape, which extends from the Alps to the Adriatic and from Mount Cimone to the Euganean Hills.
From via di Casaglia and via Monte Albanoa the climb is feasible, albeit challenging in some sections, while it is very hard from via di San Luca, with a 20% gradient at the legendary Orfanelle curve.
