Starting from Scafa (50m asl), the climb begins gentle and rideable until the junction for Pretoro: there begins the real ascent with percentages between 8 and 10％ to the top. The landscape provides everything from a hilly area to a beautiful beech forest and a panoramic view of the Pescara valley. The road surface is perfect (except for the last 2 km) and the traffic is fairly light.
Partendo da Scafa (50m slm) la salita inizia dolce e pedalabile fino al bivio per Pretoro: lì inizia la vera salita con percentuali comprese tra l'8 e il 10％ fino in cima. Il paesaggio prevede tutto: dalla zona collinare ad ana splendida faggeta fino alla vista panoramica della valle del Pescara. Il manto stradale è perfetto (a meno degli ultimi 2 km) e il traffico è abbastanza contenuto.
Great climb with distant views of Monte Amaro and the Adriatic coast. The last 2km as indicated on this site are not passable on a bicycle. The climb ends at 2068m. Generally good road surface. Last km from Fonte Tettone is brand new asphalt. Last km is very moderate and only accessible for cyclists/hikers.
Geweldig mooie klim met verre uitzichten op Monte Amaro en de Adriatische kust. De laatste 2km zoals op deze site aangegeven, zijn niet begaanbaar op een fiets. De klim eindigt op 2068m. Over het algemeen goed wegdek. Laatste kilometers vanaf Fonte Tettone is gloednieuw asfalt. Laatste km ligt er zeer matig bij en is alleen toegankelijk voor fietsers/wandelaars.
Ik nam de klim vanuit Scafa en dan is deze 27,3 km á 7,2% (1959 hm)
You cycle here with a lot of emptiness under your wheels when you look back. What a pimple. The last part, before the bar, is still fun to do. No traffic, but a lot of hikers.
Je fietst hier met veel leegte onder je wielen als je achterom kijkt. Wat een puist. Laatste stukje, voor het barretje is nog leuk om te doen. Geen verkeer meer, wel veel wandelaars.
