Monte Madone - Cresta S

A short, power-hike climb above Loco in Ticino. The gradient is steady, with no stretch much steeper than the 17.7% average. Southeast-facing, so it takes the morning sun and clears of snow earlier in spring. Most runners need 10 to 17 minutes. At 2.9 TEP it sits in the easier half of the catalogue. On the SAC scale it is mountain hiking, with uneven ground that asks for some care. The nearest named summit, Monte Madone at 2,018 m, is 753 m away.
