I did it this morning on a road bike and I agree that it is the hardest climb in Sardinia (considering those over 5 kilometres). There is a section at 20% where you have to summon your hidden strength, the hairpin bends partly allow you to catch your breath because the gradients are always in double figures. The second position I would assign to the Talana climb

L'ho fatta stamattina con la bici da strada e concordo nel ritenerla la salita più dura in Sardegna(considerando quelle oltre i 5 chilometri). Vi è un tratto al 20% dove bisogna dar fondo alle forze nascoste, i tornanti in parte consentono di tirare il fiato perchè le pendenze restano sempre a due cifre. La seconda posizione la assegnerei alla salita di Talana

I have done this climb by MTB and only in the second part from the junction where the real climb begins, so the average gradient does not do justice to this climb which is rightly classified as the hardest in Sardinia; the climb is all at 10-12% and has no rest points, the hairpin bends only help a little, the scenery is spectacular and traffic is limited; when you reach the top you will find a 360° panoramic viewpoint and you will be obliged to descend the same road to return, but not before stopping to visit the splendid natural arch about halfway up the climb, with a short walk of a few hundred metres, consider some cyclocross/XC shoes.

Ho fatto questa salita in MTB e solamente nella seconda parte dallo svincolo dove inizia la vera salita, per cui la pendenza media non rende giustizia a questa salita che è giustamente classificata come la più dura della Sardegna; la salita è tutta al 10-12% e non ha punti di riposo, i tornanti aiutano solo un pò, il paesaggio è spettacolare e il traffico è limitato; arrivati in cima troverete un punto panoramico che spazia a 360° e sarete obbligati a ridiscendere la stessa strada per fare rientro, ma non prima di esservi fermati per visitare lo splendido arco naturale a circa metà salita, con una piccola camminata di qualche centinaio di metri, valutate delle scarpe da ciclocross/XC.

This climb is really hard, I climbed Monte Tuttaviasta in the middle of the summer on my racing bike (so nice and warm).
The start of the climb from Galtellì is doable, many 8% meter sections and even a small descent.
But as soon as you turn left from the main road to the real climb, it is a fight for every meter. The climb is very irregular, especially at the end I saw 17, 18 and 19% on my garmin.

The road surface is not very good, lots of loose stones and here and there cracks in the road. Especially in the descent you have problems with that. An advantage is that you don't encounter people because it is a very narrow road with many hairpin bends.

The view is beautiful but you have to work for it.

Deze beklimming is echt lood zwaar, ik heb Monte Tuttaviasta midden in de zomer op de racefiets beklommen (lekker warm dus).
Het begin van de klim vanaf Galtellì is prima te doen, veel stukken van ca 8% en zelfs een klein stukje dalen.
Maar zodra je van de hoofdweg links af de echte beklimming start dan is het vechten voor elke meter. De beklimming is erg onregelmatig, en vooral op het einde heb ik 17, 18 en en 19% op m'n garmin gezien.

Het wegdek is niet heel erg goed, veel losse steentjes en hier en daar scheuren in de weg. Vooral bij de afdaling heb je daar wel last van. Een voordeel is dat je eigenlijk geen mensen tegenkomt want het is ook nog eens een hele smalle weg met heel veel haarspeldbochten.

Het uitzicht onderweg is prachtig maar daar moet je wel even voor werken.
