It wasn’t too steep at any point,\nbut was long enough to make us feel at home again. Wonderful views all the\nway. The descent was a bit hairy as Komoot sent us down a 20 0ncline - and it\nwas that steep for quite a long time. Don’t go up that way!!</p>\n<p>Once on the flat, we were on a mission to find the nature reserve with toilets\nthat I’d found on maps.me (what is it with Italy and the complete absence of\ntoilets???). That was all good, but then the road was closed so we had to\nreroute. The extra 10Ks was only a tiny inconvenience compared to the horrible\nroads. They may have looked small on the map, but I think every truck in\nEurope was going that way. Not sure why. They were mostly courteous, but one\npassed by so close and so fast - a truck coming the other way beeped at it as\nthere just wasn’t room. Terrifying! We tried to find a different road, but it\nwas just as bad! DO NOT FOLLOW OUR ROUTE FROM CORNINO ONWARDS!! We finally\nfound Lidl and bought ourselves a bottle of medicinal wine. Interestingly,\nonly one screwtop, less than 3 euros and it was actually OK!!</p>\n<p>We’re camping at Ai Pioppi which is a nice spot, with approximately a million\nsmall tents!! There must be a group. That said it was very quiet. 17.50 euros,\nno complaints from us. Tomorrow, Slovenia!</p>\n<p><span\n      class=\"gatsby-resp-image-wrapper\"\n      style=\"position: relative; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;  max-width: 800px;\"\n    >\n      <a\n    class=\"gatsby-resp-image-link\"\n    href=\"/static/1144676d7b866bf10957ff19309bd3e3/f9218/18772392-B1AD-436D-AA0E-7884F77599C8.jpg\"\n    style=\"display: block\"\n    target=\"_blank\"\n    rel=\"noopener\"\n  >\n    <span\n    class=\"gatsby-resp-image-background-image\"\n    style=\"padding-bottom: 75%; position: relative; bottom: 0; left: 0; background-image: url('data:image/jpeg;base64,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'); background-size: cover; display: block;\"\n  ></span>\n  <img\n        class=\"gatsby-resp-image-image\"\n        alt=\"Great views on the way up\"\n        title=\"Great views on the way up\"\n        src=\"/static/1144676d7b866bf10957ff19309bd3e3/4b190/18772392-B1AD-436D-AA0E-7884F77599C8.jpg\"\n        srcset=\"/static/1144676d7b866bf10957ff19309bd3e3/e07e9/18772392-B1AD-436D-AA0E-7884F77599C8.jpg 200w,\n/static/1144676d7b866bf10957ff19309bd3e3/066f9/18772392-B1AD-436D-AA0E-7884F77599C8.jpg 400w,\n/static/1144676d7b866bf10957ff19309bd3e3/4b190/18772392-B1AD-436D-AA0E-7884F77599C8.jpg 800w,\n/static/1144676d7b866bf10957ff19309bd3e3/e5166/18772392-B1AD-436D-AA0E-7884F77599C8.jpg 1200w,\n/static/1144676d7b866bf10957ff19309bd3e3/f9218/18772392-B1AD-436D-AA0E-7884F77599C8.jpg 1333w\"\n        sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\n        style=\"width:100%;height:100%;margin:0;vertical-align:middle;position:absolute;top:0;left:0;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n      />\n  </a>\n    </span></p>","frontmatter":{"date":null,"path":"/journal/181","title":""}}},"pageContext":{}}}
