I climbed this pass on 13 October 2024 from the chalet. The landscape changes constantly. The road is wide and in very good condition. My bike is a VTTAE CUBE weighing 23.8 kg. The climb took 20 minutes and 23 seconds.
I don't have any pictures but a video of the whole climb:

One of my favorites after 3 weeks in the island , fresh water from a nice fountain on the way up, there are certain shadows in August , the last turns offer a great view and are magnificent !

Actually the climb from Vivario counts instead of the turnoff and the sign. This makes it 1 km longer and especially spicier. Magnificent col!

Eigenlijk telt de klim vanuit Vivario ipv de afslag en het bord. Daarmee is hij 1 km langer en vooral pittiger. Schitterende col!
