Tips from the Community

Gabriele
December 14, 2025, Salita a Portella della Ginestra

Starting from the Palermo-Sciacca junction, you climb up to the Portella della Ginestra pass, an important place both for its tragic history and for its position which effectively makes it the gateway to Piana degli Albanesi.

*November 2025 the bridge was replaced with a "temporary" crossing that allows cycling between Trappeto and Balestrate again, without having to use the SS 187 as a bypass

Attention: Bridge closed to traffic as of April 2025! There is a large construction site cordoned off, and no access is possible. Either take a 10 km detour or walk down to the beach and cross there.

The SS187 is a winding state road that winds from Castellammare del Golfo towards Belvedere and then on to San Vito lo Capo. The climb offers fantastic views of the bay and the expansive sea – especially in the early morning hours or just before sunset. Tip: The route is very popular with road cyclists – it's a steady climb with good asphalt and little traffic during the off-season. Those who take a break at Belvedere will be rewarded with one of the most beautiful panoramic views of the west coast of Sicily. Be sure to have your camera ready!
