I ride this climb habitually as a less than amateur cyclist, with few annual outings. Not steep but long and with stretches that present a minimum of difficulty, with a gradient of 9％ for about a kilometre just after the junction for Campoli Appennino a third of the way up... A scenic road, very beautiful, trafficked by motorbikes that often ride along it at high speeds. It is a natural training ground for cyclists, a natural gateway to the Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise National Park. At the end of the 29km, you arrive in a stupendous forest and then begin the descent to Opi, from there, for those with legs, you can continue to Passo Godi and Scanno, adding kilometres and elevation gain. I recommend it to everyone because it is rideable but also a good test for those who live the bike without ambition but who seek personal satisfaction.
Percorro questa salita abitualmente da ciclista meno che amatore, con poche uscite annuali. Non ripida ma lunga e con tratti che un minimo di difficoltà la presentano con pendenza al 9％ per circa un km appena dopo il bivio per Campoli Appennino ad un terzo del percorso... Strada panoramica, molto bella, trafficata da moto che spesso la percorrono a velocità sostenuta. È una palestra naturale per i ciclisti, porta naturale per il passaggio nel parco Nazionale Di Abruzzo, Lazio e Molise. Alla fine dei 29km si arriva in un bosco stupendo per poi iniziare la discesa verso Opi, da lì, per chi ha gamba, si può proseguire fino a passo Godi e Scanno aggiungendo km e dislivello. La consiglio a tutti perché è pedalabile ma anche una bella prova per chi vive la bici senza velleità ma che cerca soddisfazioni personali.
