Starting point for many trails that wind around Monte Morello. The CAI signage is very well maintained.

A panoramic mountain between the Sieve Valley and Mugello. The trails are poorly maintained, especially those descending into the Mugello, often eroded by rainwater and reduced to drainage ditches. Now, as in many other areas of Tuscany, the Path of the Gods, now popular with young people, has been removed and kept clean, and brambles and undergrowth are everywhere, often obscuring the old trails and making them inaccessible. A real shame! Because the views offered by the ridges and peaks deserve much greater attention, both politically (by local authorities) and socially (by volunteers).

The Seppi source is located along the Colli Alti road that leads from Sesto to Pratolino. From here a dirt road starts that leads to the Sella degli Scollini and, from here, various MTB tours start.

Access is from the provincial road of Colli Alti where, more or less, the climb ends on both sides. From here, along a comfortable dirt road to the saddle of Scollini and then continue left to Tedesco Morto, and right to Poggio del Giro and Ceppeto.

Puppeapera is indicated as medium difficulty on par with Miglio Verde and Jango and New Jango, in my opinion it is not bad to take a look at most of the jumps first because there are often obstacles, non-trivial lines and little space before and/or after the jump or drop. Unless you face the trial with a MTB with generous suspension and/or a lot of grip under your ass...

Monte Giovi, also known as "Monte di Giove", stands at an altitude of 992 meters and is located on the Apennine ridge between the Morello and Senario mountains. Its slopes are dotted with paths perfect for walking or mountain biking, also thanks to themed routes, including some that remember and celebrate the Resistance.
