A very nice climb on quiet roads. Therefore a good alternative to the much busier track between Argegno and San Fidele Invelvi, if you want to cross through from Lake Como to Lake Lugano and have time to make an extra loop. The last four kilometres are a dead-end, but from the Alpe Grande you can cross through to San Fidele Invelvi and continue down towards Osteno.
The climb is divided into about three blocks, each interrupted by a bit of descent. Very even climbing around 6 %, it doesn't get really steep anywhere. But it does alternate through forests, meadows and villages, with occasional beautiful views of Lake Como.

Een heel mooie klim op rustige wegen. Daarom een goed alternatief voor de veel drukkere baan tussen Argegno en San Fidele Invelvi, als je van het Comomeer naar het meer van Lugano wil doorsteken en tijd hebt om een extra lusje te maken. De laatste vier kilometer zijn een doodlopend stuk, maar vanaf de Alpe Grande kan je doorsteken naar San Fidele Invelvi en zo verder afdalen richting Osteno.
De klim is opgedeeld in een drietal blokken, telkens onderbroken door een stukje afdalen. Heel gelijkmatig klimmen rond de 6 %, echt steil wordt het nergens. Maar wel afwisselend door bossen, weides en dorpjes, met af en toe een prachtig uitzicht op het Comomeer.
