A tough ascent. On the first 5 kilometres or so to Pigniu, the gradient almost never drops below 10% and has longer sections of up to 14%. The last stretch to the reservoir is then somewhat flatter and has 2 short gravel sections of approx. 200m, but these are easy to ride. Wonderful views, good road conditions and great scenery... read more

Ein hammerharter Aufstieg. Auf den ersten ca.5km bis Pigniu fällt die Steigung fast nie unter 10% und hat längere Abschnitte mit bis zu 14%. Das letzte Stück bis zum Stausee ist dann etwas flacher und hat 2 kurze Gravel-Abschnitte von ca. 200m, die aber gut fahrbar sind. Wundervolle Ausblicke, guter Strassenzustand und tolle Landachaft

Super interesting ascend. Quite cold (not sunny due to position). Lake on top really nice. No fountains along the road, a few bars
