Rather regular ascent with wide hairpin bends. Road surface in good condition (2025) and wooded route almost everywhere. To be avoided on summer and winter weekends due to heavy traffic of cars, motorbikes and motorhomes. ... read more

Rather regular ascent with wide hairpin bends.
Road surface in good condition (2025) and wooded route almost everywhere.
To be avoided on summer and winter weekends due to heavy traffic of cars, motorbikes and motorhomes.

Salita piuttosto regolare con ampi tornanti.
Manto stradale in buono stato (2025) e percorso quasi ovunque alberato.
Da evitare nei weekend estivi ed invernali per l'intenso traffico di auto, moto e camper.

Celano is a pretty town. The climb itself is one that is fun but won't stay with you forever.

Celano is een mooi plaatsje. De klim zelf is er een die leuk is maar je niet voor altijd bijblijft.
