Easy climb. Do make sure you bring a second pair of legs for the way back if you're staying in Bormio.

Makkelijk klimmetje. Zorg wel dat je een tweede paar benen meeneemt voor de terugweg als je in Bormio verblijft.

The toughest climb ever! It is one of several climbs from Valtellina (three alternatives for the first kilometres). Hard, beautiful, long. Much more demanding than the ascent from Valle Camonica. Absolutely must be done! It is also worth a long trip: many well-equipped facilities to accommodate cyclists from all over the world.

La salita più dura mai fatta! E’ una delle varie possibilità di salita dalla Valtellina (tre alternative per i primi chilometri). Dura, bella, lunga. Ben più impegnativa rispetto all’ascesa dalla Valle Camonica. Da fare assolutamente! Vale anche un viaggio lungo: tante strutture ben attrezzate per ospitare i ciclisti da tutto il mondo.
