Nice start with perfect tarmac and cool lake views. After Peglio a left turn on a small road with changing road conditions. Doable on my 25mm Grand prix tyres but be aware of sections with big holes. Also be aware of traffic in corners as you can’t see ahead.... read more

Nice climb! First on the normal road and not too steep. Then at the lake turn left onto a quiet road with sometimes bad tarmac and a lot steeper (fortunately with more shade). At one point, you come to all kinds of houses and then you're almost there. On the car park at the top beautiful view and a fountain with cold water!

Mooie beklimming! Eerst over de gewone weg en niet te steil. Daarna bij het meertje linksaf een rustig weggetje op met soms slecht asfalt en een stuk steiler (gelukkig wel meer schaduw). Op een gegeven moment kom je bij allerlei huisjes en dan ben je er bijna. Op de parkeerplaats bij de top prachtig uitzicht en een fonteintje met koud water!
