It's a nice climb with some really beautiful viewpoints over the lake. The last 3 km are very demanding with points even at 20％. Done by mountain bike precisely to avoid any nasty surprises. At the top of Alpe Pala there is a view of the lake that is well worth all the effort put into the climb.... read more

Good climb to warm up and hit the last kilometers hard. The gradient during last part might be little challenging.

A very interesting and demanding climb, with little traffic and pleasant. The first section up to the falsopiano is pedalable, while the last 4 km are also challenging due to a last kilometre and a half with gradients to make Mortirolo envious. At the end of the climb there is a small chapel and a beautiful wooden fountain with very fresh water, a just reward for the effort.

Salita molto interessante e impegnativa, poco trafficata e piacevole. Il primo tratto fino al falsopiano è pedalabile, mentre gli ultimi 4km sono impegnativi anche a causa di un ultimo km e mezzo con pendenze da far invidia al Mortirolo. Alla fine della salita c’è una piccola cappella e una bella fontana di legno con acqua freschissima, giusto premio per la fatica.

Ascent is worthwhile! Fine road surface for road bikes. Not too busy with traffic. Halfway a village (Miazzina) where you can have a pit stop just fine.

Beklimming is de moeite waard! Prima wegdek voor de racefiets. Niet al te druk met verkeer. Halverwege een dorpje (Miazzina) waar je prima een pitstop kunt houden.

E' una bella salita con dei punti panoramici sul Lago davvero belli. Gli ultimi 3 km sono molto impegnativi con punti anche al 20％. Fatta in Mtb proprio per evitare brutte sorprese. In cima all'Alpe Pala c'è una visuale sul Lago che merita tutta la fatica fatta per salire
