How beautiful! I had never even been here by car, but I was very impressed. Virtually no traffic, peace and quiet and views, it was a pleasure!

An ascent from Olda to Forcella di Bura via the pretty village of Peghera. It closes the Valtaleggio tour, a climb that completes the rings of the area. I always enjoy pulling it a bit with the 'rapportone', the gradients allow it and if you have some, it is the perfect climb to open up the throttle a bit!

The Val Taleggio loop closes. Very beautiful panorama, ruined asphalt, little traffic. The gradients make you pause for breath, but after the Val Taleggio the climb seems never-ending

Pleasant, useful for joining several valleys and loop tours in the area.
