A very tough and beautiful climb, it has little to envy the more famous Mortirolo. The gradients are very very similar, too bad for the road surface which in the first 8 km is almost all new asphalt but very bumpy in the last 2 km. Watch out for chestnut husks in autumn, I was so afraid of getting a puncture. I didn't find any other cyclists even on the descent, in 1h07 I crossed only 2 cars. Worth a try, as from Sondrio it is only 2km to the start of the climb from Sondrio... read more

Salita durissima e bellissima, ha poco da invidiare al più famoso mortirolo. Le pendenze sono molto molto simili, peccato per il manto stradale che nei primi 8 km è quasi tutto asfaltato nuovo ma molto dissestato negli ultimi 2 km. Occhio ai ricci delle castagne in autunno, avevo tanta paura di bucare.
Non ho trovato altri ciclisti neppure in discesa, in 1h07 incrociate solo 2 auto. Da provare, visto che da Sondrio si imbocca l'inizio della salita in soli 2km dalla città
