The starting point of the climb is the narrow side road between the fire brigade and the church in the village centre. After the playground and some tennis courts you are immediately treated to a murderous short stretch of over 15% . It continues via
the 16 hairpin bends through the pine forest on the Lüsenberg/Luson-Monte flirt with double-digit percentages in the first part of the climb. This means that the starting point is sinking deeper and deeper and the views of Lüsendal/Valley di Luson are becoming more and more expansive. The 2 descents on the route, one of which is slightly longer than 1 km for a loss of 100 hm, provide extra altitude gain and a recuperation opportunity.
Pass height is actually a parking zone (Zumis-1725m) because it is also a popular starting point for hikes.
No food or drink at the summit but 600m. up the unpaved side road there is the Oberhauseralm.

Firm beautiful 10 km climb, sorry for the at times bad asphalt.
Picked it up when returning from the Passo delle Erbe.

Vertrekpunt van de klim is de smalle zijweg tussen brandweergebouw en kerkje in het dorpscentrum. Na de speeltuin en enkele tennisvelden word je onmiddellijk getrakteerd op een moordend kort stuk van meer dan 15% . Het vervolg via
de 16 haarspeldbochten door het naaldwoud op de Lüsen-berg/Luson-Monte flirten in het eerste klimdeel steeds met dubbele cijfer percentages . Bijgevolg zakt ons vertrekpunt steeds dieper weg en zijn de uitzichten over Lüsendal/Val di Luson steeds weidser. De 2 afdalingen op de route, waarvan één iets langer dan 1 km voor 100 hm verlies, zorgen voor extra fietshoogtemeters en een recuperatiemoment.
Pashoogte is eigenlijk parkeerzone (Zumis-1725m) want het is ook een populair vertrekpunt voor wandeltochten.
Geen drank of eetgelegenheid op de top maar 600m.op onverharde zijweg is er de Oberhauseralm.

Stevige mooie 10 km klim,spijtig van het bij momenten slecht asfalt.
Pikte hem mee bij terugkomst van de Passo delle Erbe.
