The road is so narrow that it almost looks like a bicycle path!
Very little traffic, the central part is immersed in greenery and the roar of torrents. From a naturalistic point of view, it is a climb that is well worth the effort, with environments that change radically, particularly if you decide to complete a loop tour, descending towards Schilpario, with views of Cimon della Bagozza, Concarena, etc. - and then return via Dezzo di Scalve or Borno. Personally, I found the last 8km of the ascent tiring!
La strada è talmente stretta che, sembra quasi una ciclabile!
Molto poco frequentata, la parte centrale è immersa nel verde e lo scroscio dei torrenti. Naturalisticamente, una salita che merita con ambienti che cambiano radicalmente, in particolare se si decide di completare un giro ad anello, scendendo verso Schilpario, con vista su Cimon della Bagozza, Concarena, etc - e poi rientrare via Dezzo di Scalve oppure Borno. Personalmente, ho trovato faticosi gli ultimi 8km dell'ascesa!
Beautiful panoramic climb with a less than perfect road surface.
Slightly frequented and done with a loop starting from Lake Iseo. It becomes a beautiful stage.
Possibility of refreshments at the finish.
Beware of narrow road without protections in the first part of the descent (if you do the loop).
Fountains available along the route, few.
Bella salita panoramica con fondo stradale non perfetto.
Poco frequentata e fatta con partenza dal lago Iseo con giro ad anello. Diventa una bella tappa.
Possibilità di ristoro all'arrivo.
Attenzione a strada stretta senza protezioni, nella prima parte di discesa (se fate il giro).
Fontane disponibili lungo il percorso, poche.
Climbed this summer, very beautiful and with little traffic. The road surface is not exactly optimal, but at the top the view is fantastic. If you are in the area, it is worth it
Cheers
Salita fatta quest'estate, molto bella e poco trafficata. Manto stradale non proprio ottimale, ma in cima il panorama è fantastico. Se si è in zona, vale la pena
Cheers
What a beautiful climb! Seems to be a beautiful cycling area anyway. Road surface is ok, it's part of the experience.
Wat een mooie klim! Schijnt sowieso mooi fietsgebied te zijn. Wegdek wel ok, hoort bij de beleving.
Road surface is in very poor condition. Cycled 15 sept 2015. A nice climb in terms of scenery though
Wegdek is in zeer slechte staat. 15 sept. 2015 gefietst. Wel een mooie klim qua omgeving
