Nice climb and nowhere killing. From Mori to Brentonico you climb between the vineyards on a rather busy road, but the road is wide enough, so room for every road user. Don't panic if you see the sign 16% in Brentonico, because here you turn left towards Polsa. You leave the crowds behind ... read more

Nice climb and nowhere killing.
From Mori to Brentonico you climb between the vineyards on a rather busy road, but the road is wide enough, so room for every road user.
Don't panic if you see the sign 16% in Brentonico, because here you turn left towards Polsa.
You leave the crowds behind you and now you can really enjoy the views.
Officially the climb ends a bit lower (at the parking lot) and here you will also find the sign with all the info about the climb you just did.
A little further on are some hotels and restaurants but also a shortcut to an extra adventure.
In the bend of the restaurant you can continue to the top of the Postemon and then descend to San Valentino.
But beware, in this part there are two strips of unpaved road but I got through it well.
This extra loop is quite steep after the first part. Double digits that even reach the 20% mark make everything creak, but after that, it's party time. Winding through alpine meadows, cows coming our way and nowhere above 10 %.
If you descend towards San Valentino, you come across the second unpaved strip, but if you are careful here, there is nothing wrong.
When you arrive at the T-junction you can choose to descend towards the base of your climb, or turn left for another 5km climb to the top of Monte Baldo.
But La Polsa is a nice climb that is doable for everyone and definitely worth the effort.

Mooie klim en nergens killing.
Vanuit Mori tot aan Brentonico klim je tussen de wijnvelden over een tamelijk drukke weg, maar de weg is breed genoeg, dus plaats voor iedere weggebruiker.
Geen paniek als je in Brentonico het bordje 16% ziet, want hier sla je linksaf richting Polsa.
Je laat de drukte achter je en kunt nu echt genieten van de uitzichten.
Officieel eindigt de klim iets lager (bij de parkeerplaats) en hier vind je ook het bord met alle info over de klim die je net hebt gedaan.
Iets verder door zijn enkele hotels en restaurants maar ook een doorsteek naar een extra avontuurtje.
In de bocht van het restaurant kun je doorsteken naar de de top van de Postemon om vervolgens af te dalen naar San Valentino.
Maar let wel, in dit stuk bevinden zich twee stroken onverhard maar ik ben er goed doorheen gekomen.
Dit extra lusje is na het eerste stuk onverhard wel behoorlijk steil. Dubbele cijfers die zelfs de 20% aantikken laten alles kraken, maar daarna is het ook feest. Kronkelend door de Alpenweides, koeien die we weg komen afgelopen en nergens meer boven de 10 %.
Als je afdaalt richting San Valentino kom je over de tweede onverharde strook, maar als je hier voorzichtig bent is er niks aan de hand.
Als je op de T-splitsing aankomt kunt je kiezen om af te dalen richting de voet van je klim, of linksaf te slaan voor nog 5km klimmen naar de top van de Monte Baldo.
Maar La Polsa is een mooie klim die voor iedereen goed te doen is en zeker de moeite waard is.
