Done this morning on a warm June morning... easy to find from Albisola thanks to the directions. You skirt the river, keeping it a little to the right and a little to the left. More than an ascent, it is a little more of a falsopiano but very smooth, which allows you to push well. In the first few kilometres there is a roadway for bicycles. I found no water supply and very few or no bars. Useful for then going either to the Fàiallo or Monte Beigua. Very quiet as traffic... read more

Fatta stamattina in una calda mattina di giugno.. facile da trovare da Albisola grazie alle indicazioni. Si costeggia il fiume tenendolo un po' a dx e un po' a sinistra. Più che una Salita è un poco più di un falsopiano ma molto regolare il che permette di spingere bene. Nei primi chilometri c'è la carreggiata per le bici. Non ho trovato rifornimento per l'acqua e pochissimi o nessuno bar. Utile per poi andare o verso il Fàiallo o il Monte Beigua. Molto tranquilla come traffico
