Breathtaking scenery on the Straits on one side and the Aeolian Islands on the other. The maximum altitude is around 1130 metres above sea level and not as high as indicated. To reach the start of the climb, however, you have to cycle 9-10 km whether you start from Messina or Villafranca Tirrena. From the latter, the climb to Colle San Rizzo measures 9. 4 km at 5％ with peaks of 7-8％ making the total climb a good 18.5 km long (from about 2msl to 1130sml). I recommend it to everyone... read more

Breathtaking landscape. You are often right on the ridge and can see the Ionian Sea to the left and the Tyrrhenian Sea to the right. The sunset from here is incredibly beautiful. There are few cars here, but the road is damaged in places. On the way back, the road is often newer on the right-hand side, which is good for the descent.
Unfortunately, there was a lot of rubbish everywhere. At some rest areas, people have left dozens of disposable cutlery and rubbish bags lying around. :(

Atemberaubende Landschaft. Oft ist man direkt auf dem Bergkamm und kann links das ionische und rechts das tyrrhenische Meer sehen. Der Sonnenuntergang ist von hier unglaublich schön. Es fahren wenige Autos hier, aber die Straße hat teilweise größere Schäden. Auf dem Weg zurück ist die Straße oft auf der rechten Seite aber neuer, was gut für die Abfahrt ist.
Zuletzt lag leider überall sehr viel Müll. An manchen Rastplätze haben Leute dutzendes Einwegbesteck und Müllsäcke liegen gelassen. :(

Beautiful and tough! Definitely tiring but at the top it is spectacular! Some sections are really demanding but by not giving up you reach the summit, combined of course with the possible climbs (Villafranca, Messina, or Spartà) it becomes quite challenging, agile ratios and heart are recommended to get up there.

Bella e dura! Sicuramente faticosa ma in cima è spettacolare! Alcuni tratti sono veramente impegnativi ma non mollando si raggiunge la vetta, abbinata ovviamente alle possibili salite (Villafranca, Messina, o Spartà) diventa parecchio impegnativa, si consigliano rapporti agili e cuore per arrivare su.

Paesaggio mozzafiato sullo stretto da una parte e sull'eolie dall'altro. L'altitudine massima è intorno ai 1130 slm e non quanto indicato. Per raggiungere l'imbocco della salita bisogna comunque pedalare per 9-10 km sia che si parta da Messina che da Villafranca Tirrena. Da quest'ultima la salita fino a Colle San Rizzo misura 9. 4 km al 5％ con punte del 7-8％ rendendo la salita complessiva lunga ben 18.5 km (da circa 2msl a 1130sml). La consiglio a tutti
