The final 2,5km of this climb is completely crazy. The concrete road seems to go vertical, it is really tough.
It makes more sense to do this on an e-bike than a analogue bike, but it's your choice.

Once at the top, you can continue for 15 min or so over mixed tarmac / gravel roads to the Croce di Marone (1166m), to tap some fresh mountain water, or to get yourself a well deserved coffee & cake in the rifugio
