Although the climb is less than 7 km long, it is a challenging (and beautiful) climb with a gradient of almost always over 10 ％. You may encounter a few cars in the first kilometre, but after that there is no traffic (but i met dozens of goats and donkeys). There is a barrier 1 km before the end, but you can continue to the top without any problems if you are on a bike. Breathtaking view on the Lago Maggiore and the Isole di Brissago.... read more

Nice climb, little sister of the Alpe di Neggia from Vira. Just the right amount of effort, very little traffic. Nice view of the lake from the summit.

Bella salita, sorella minore dell'Alpe di Neggia da Vira. Impegnativa il giusto, pochissimo traffico. Dalla cima bello scorcio sul lago.

Remember that a smooth cadence is always more efficient!
