In view of the weaker weather, we decided to tackle this climb. It is short but make no mistake about the difficulty of this climb. After a somewhat flat approach from Cepina, the percentages rise quickly. Soon you see double digits as gradient. This is followed by a tunnel that is not too steep and then it really starts.

In view of the weaker weather, we decided to tackle this climb. It is short but make no mistake about the difficulty of this climb. After a somewhat flat approach from Cepina, the percentages rise quickly. Soon you see double digits as gradient. This is followed by a tunnel that is not too steep and then it really starts. For kilometres the climb flirts with the 10% average. Sometimes above it, sometimes below it. The last two kilometres the quality of the tarmac reduces dramatically which makes it even harder. At the top, the view makes up for a lot. An unfamiliar, tough climb with little traffic. Recommended if you are in the area and looking for a gentle climb.

In verband met het mindere weer besloten deze klim aan te doen. Hij is kort maar vergis je niet in de moeilijkheid van deze klim. Na een wat vlakke aanloop vanuit Cepina lopen de percentages snel op. Al gauw zie je dubbele cijfers als hellingsgraad. Dan volgt er een tunnel die niet al te steil is en daarna begint het echt. Kilometers lang flirt de klim met de 10% gemiddeld. Soms erboven, soms eronder. De laatste twee kilometers vermindert de kwaliteit van het asfalt dramatisch wat het nog zwaarder maakt. Boven aangekomen maakt het uitzicht veel goed. Een onbekende, pittige klim met weinig verkeer. Aanrader voor als je in de buurt bent en een rustige klim zoekt.
