AC Torino plane crash<\/h6>\n
The hill was part of one of the biggest football disasters in Italian history in 1949. On May 4, 1949, a plane crashed into the hill in dense fog and heavy rain. The plane contained players, trainers and supervisors from the AC Torino football club. All 31 passengers were killed, including almost the entire AC Torino team.<\/p>\n
At the end of the 1940s, AC Torino became one of the best clubs in Italy. The national team consisted mainly of players from AC Torino. Of the starting eleven, only the goalkeeper did not play for the club from Turin. The Grande Torino team became national champions four years in a row. The club played the competition with youth players. Out of respect, the opponents also fielded their youth team against Grande Torino. A memorial stone on the hill commemorates this disaster.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Superga Hill, this mountain will not immediately conjure up fond cycling memories. That will change in 2022. In the 2022 Giro, this mountain on the edge of Turin, the capital of Piedmont, will be climbed no less than three times. Time for an introduction. Text: CYCLOsportive, Image: Shutterstock Go to the Giro with CYCLOsportive! Initially, the climb is quite mild. The first five hundred meters climb with an average of seven percent. After that, the steepness increases steadily. Peaks of up to fourteen percent are not uncommon. The first part with varying steepness is the template for the entire climb. Steep - flat - steep - flat. Halfway up the climb is the steepest part with a maximum of fourteen percent. A few hairpin bends and shady spots characterize the climb. Only once does the Basilica open up for a wide view of the city of Turin. Almost at the top at about 600 meters you can ride straight ahead like the riders during the semi-classic Milano-Torino. They climb the Basilica twice during this classic. At the top of the hill it offers a beautiful view of the 300 year old basilica of the Superga and the world city of Torino. Definitely recommended!
