Short but very hard climb, tackled a couple of times by MTB as the final section is unpaved. The gradients are always steep and leave you breathless, and in some sections it is hard to keep pedalling. A couple of fountains are encountered along the way.... read more

Salita corta ma durissima, affrontata un paio di volte in MTB visto che il tratto finale è sterrato. Le pendenze sono sempre elevate e non ti lasciano respiro, in alcuni tratti è dura mantenere la pedalata. Si incontrano un paio di fontane lungo il percorso.
