Any road up towards Campo Imperatore is a good one, but I would not necessarily detour especially for this one. I took this climb on a long hot day in the saddle from L'Aquila and could also have continued at Calascio towards Castel del Monte. In retrospect, I would have liked to have done so, as the temperature in the Ofena valley did not lie and the views were not very special compared to what could be seen above.
Elke weg omhoog richting Campo Imperatore is een goede weg, maar ik zou niet per se omrijden speciaal voor deze. Ik nam deze klim op een lange warme dag in het zadel vanuit L'Aquila en had ook bij Calascio kunnen doorsteken richting Castel del Monte. Dat had ik achteraf graag gedaan, want de temperatuur in het dal van Ofena loog er niet om en de uitzichten waren in vergelijking met wat er boven te te zien niet heel bijzonder.
