Tough climb, but with wonderful views, in particular the Branzi waterfalls. Tougher section in Valleve, some landslides (summer 2024) being repaired with alternating traffic road.
Salita dura, ma con splendidi panorami, in particolare le cascate di Branzi. Tratto più duro a Valleve, alcune frane (estate 2024) in fase di riparazione con strada a traffico alternato.
A pleasant climb, which gets a little harder above Branzi. I did it on a mountain bike and it feels good. It's a good idea to combine it with the crossing of the Brembana valley, which climbs gently to Branzi. Pass through some nice villages such as San Pellegrino.
une montée agréable, qui se durcit un peu au-dessus de Branzi. je l'ai faite en VTT et cela se fait bien. Il est bien de combiner avec la traversée de la vallée Brembana qui monte tranquillement jusqu'à Branzi. Traversée de quelques villages sympas comme San Pellegrino.
A climb to combine with other climbs in the Val Brembana
I always recommend arriving there along the beautiful Val Brembana cycle path, which is built on the route of an old railway.
The climb is quite demanding, although it does allow some breathing space in the middle part, the last challenging section, especially if you have done anything else before.

Salita da unire ad altre salite nella Val Brembana
Consiglio sempre di arrivarci percorrendo la bella ciclabile dells Val Brembana , ricavata sul percorso di una vecchia ferrovia.
La salita è abbastanza impegnativa anche se lascia un po di respiro nella parte centrale, ultimo tratto impegnativo, soprattutto se avete fatto altro prima.
