This is one of my favourite climbs in the valley, as it is easy, steady and has a beautiful view of the Avigliana lakes. As I was saying, apart from the first section, the climb is constant and fixed around 8％, with more or less steep sections of a few dozen metres. It is all a series of hairpin bends, so the climb is also fun. The finish is "simple" there is a drinking fountain and a church at the finish. The descent from the other side is, in my opinion, less beautiful.... read more

Una delle mie salite preferite in valle, in quanto è semplice, costante e con un bel panorama sui Laghi di Avigliana.
Come dicevo, a parte il primo pezzo la salita è costante e si fissa intorno all'8％, con pezzetti più o meno ripidi di qualche decina di metri.
è tutto un giro di tornanti, quindi la salita è anche divertente.
L'arrivo è "semplice", c'è una fontanella ed una chiesa all'arrivo. La discesa dall'altro versante secondo me è meno bella.

Costly ascent all the way up, definitely to be done in spring or autumn, I do not recommend it in summer as it is almost totally sunny.
Constant ascent with gradients that go into double figures a few times

Salita costate per tutta la tratta, da fare sicuramente in primavera o in autunno, la sconsiglio in estate in quanto è quasi totalmente al sole.
Salita costante con pendenze che vanno poche volte in doppia cifra
