It really is a beautiful climb. It is worth it I assure you
È veramente una bella salita. Ne vale la pena Ve lo assicuro
A short ascent to the Croce di Giovo pass from the village of Verla: a first ramp of around 500 metres at 10-12% leads to Palù di Giovo, the birthplace of brothers Aldo, Diego and Francesco Moser and of Gilberto Simoni (86 days in the pink jersey in total, and many other victories on the road and track). The crossing of Palù is essentially flat: once out of the town, the gradients become steep again for another 500 metres or so. Arriving at the pass, turning right the road actually remains slightly uphill for another kilometre, while turning left it descends towards the Valle dell'Adige. Not a memorable climb, but if you love cycling you should pass through Palù di Giovo and pay homage to the great champions mentioned above.
Breve ascesa al passo Croce di Giovo dall'abitato di Verla: una prima rampa di circa 500 metri al 10-12% porta a Palù di Giovo, terra natale dei fratelli Aldo, Diego e Francesco Moser e di Gilberto Simoni (86 giorni complessivi in maglia rosa, e tante altre vittorie su strada e pista). L'attraversamento di Palù è sostanzialmente pianeggiante: usciti dall'abitato, le pendenze si rifanno aspre per altri 500 metri circa. Arrivati al passo, girando verso destro la strada in realtà rimane ancora in leggera salita per un altro chilometro, mentre girando a sinistra si scende verso la Valle dell'Adige. Non una salita memorabile, ma se amate il ciclismo è doveroso passare a Palù di Giovo e rendere omaggio ai grandi campioni menzionati poco sopra.
