Beautiful climb, difficult until the Bornas Restaurant, after which it flattens out. Not to be missed, in my opinion, is the diversions to Col Alto, which you take once you get to Castaldia, where there are the repeaters. I remember that this is where Pantani jumped in the 1998 Giro. Here the Pirate won, beating Tonkov and Zuelle by a handful of seconds.... read more

Bella Salita, difficile fino al Ristorante Bornas, dopo spiana. Da non perdere secondo me la deviazione verso col Alto, che si prende una volta arrivati a Castaldia, dove ci sono i ripetitori. Ricordo che è salti Pantani del Giro 1998. Qui il Pirata vinse battendo di una manciata di secondi Tonkov e Zuelle

Wide road. Good surface. Lot of traffic. Some crazy drivers that do not respect cyclist space. Nothing special on the climb wise.

Challenging ascent on a wide lorry road to Piancavallo. Magnificent views over the Friulian plain. Be careful on the descent because high speeds can be reached.

Impegnativa ascesa su ampia strada camionabile con arrivo a Piancavallo. Magnifiche vedute sulla pianura friulana. Prestare attenzione scendendo perché si possono raggiungere punte di velocità elevate.

Long and demanding ascent, steep slopes in the first 2 km and at 6/7 km then the road climbs very gradually without too many tears. In summer, start the climb early as almost all of it is sunny.

Salita lunga e impegnativa, pendenze ripide nei primi 2 km e al 6/7 km poi la strada sale molto graduale senza troppi strappi. In estate iniziare la salita presto poichè quasi tutta in battuta di sole.
