This is a climb you should try to avoid. The advantage of the climb is that it is quiet from the point you turn left into the second part of the climb. The big disadvantage of the climb is the several long dark tunnels. Three long tunnels of each around 1 km in length. There is little light even if you have light it is very exciting whether you are hit by traffic or not. If possible, take the climb from the other side, which is more manageable.
Dit is een klim die je moet proberen te ontwijken. De voordeel van de klim is dat het rustig is vanaf het punt dat je linksaf de tweede deel van de klim begint. De grote nadeel van de klim zijn de meerdere lange donkere tunnels. Drie lange tunnels van elk rond de 1 km van lengte. Er is weinig licht zelfs als je licht hebt is het erg spannend of je wel of niet wordt aangereden door verkeer. Als kan neem de klim vanuit de andere kant, die is beter te doen.
Beautiful and fairly easy climb in Süd Tirol. The first part with the hairpin bends from Lana is beautiful but very busy. Once you have left Sankt Pancraz behind, it becomes quieter and the panorama more wide. My final destination was Sankt Gertraud (1510m) where there is still a big 20%+ stretch to the church, but you can still continue to Weissbrun at ~1900m. Descending you will notice that the road is sometimes bad in the curves; so watch out!
Mooie en redelijk eenvoudige beklimming in Süd Tirol. Het eerste deel met de haarspeldbochten vanuit Lana is mooi maar erg druk. Zodra je Sankt Pancraz achter je hebt gelaten, wordt het rustiger en het panorama weidser. Mijn eindstation was Sankt Gertraud (1510m)waar naar de kerk nog een flinke 20%+ strook ligt, maar je kunt nog door naar Weissbrun op ~1900m. Afdalend merk je dat de weg soms slecht is in de bochten; oppassen dus!
