I did this climb today, which Climbfinder is credited with reporting and which is virtually unknown. If my Garmin doesn't lie, the maximum gradient figure should be corrected: coming out of the forest there is a 400/500 m. concrete ramp, which starts at 15% and touches on 21% in the final stretch. The manager of the Osteria di Mezzomonte had in fact foretold this to me. In any case, as an overall effort, it has little to envy the Zoncolan from Ovaro.... read more

Nice shady on warm day. Poor road surface. Some bits are with decent gradient that might make you stand up from saddle. Totally worth to ride.

Ho fatto oggi questa salita, che Climbfinder ha il merito di aver segnalato e che è pressoché sconosciuta.
Se il mio Garmin non mente, va corretto il dato di pendenza massima: usciti dal bosco si incontra una rampa di 400/500 m. in cemento, che parte dal 15% e tocca, nel tratto finale il 21%.
Me lo aveva del resto preannunciato il gestore dell’Osteria di Mezzomonte.
In ogni caso, come impegno complessivo, non ha molto da invidiare allo Zoncolan da Ovaro.

Ascent completed this morning by road bike. I then continued on to Piancavallo. The route is lonely (there is a ban on motor vehicles, I only encountered the forest patrol car) and partially shady. The road is a little dirty. Some of the gullies are quite wide and on the descent towards Piancavallo there are also some cemented sections that make the experience more pleasant with a gravel or mountain bike. Be sure to bring plenty of drinks and a repair kit.

Salita compiuta stamattina in bici da corsa. Ho proseguito poi per Piancavallo. Il percorso è solitario (c'è il divieto di transito per i mezzi a motore, ho incontrato solo l'auto forestale di pattugliamento) e parzialmente in ombra. La strada è un po' sporca. Alcune canalette di scolo sono piuttosto ampie e in discesa verso Piancavallo ci sono pure dei tratti cementati che rendono l'esperienza più piacevole con una gravel o mtb. Portarsi assolutamente da bere quanto basta e kit di riparazione.
