Long climb, more challenging in the first section and then later pedalable. It alternates between open views and stretches in the forest, halfway up you catch a glimpse of the pass and it is an incentive to push on!

Long climb, more challenging in the first section and then later pedalable. It alternates between open views and stretches in the forest, halfway up you catch a glimpse of the pass and it is an incentive to push on! Once at the top there are several alternatives to close a loop: to the right for Bargagli and Genova, a busy road but with excellent asphalt, or once you reach Sottocolle you can go left towards Boasi, Ferriere and the Val Fontana good; from the pass to the left you reach instead the Alta Valle Scriva, you can climb again towards Torriglia or descend towards Montoggio.

Salita lunga, più impegnativa nel primo tratto e poi dopo pedalabile. Alterna panorami aperti e tratti nel bosco, a metà si intravede il passo ed è uno stimolo a spingere! Una volta in cima ci sono diverse alternative per chiudere un anello: a destra per Bargagli e Genova, strada trafficata ma con ottimo asfalto, oppure arrivarti a Sottocolle si può andare a sinistra verso Boasi, Ferriere e la Val Fontana buona; dal Passo verso sinistra si raggiungere invece l'Alta Valle Scriva, si può salire ancora verso Torriglia o scendere verso Montoggio.

I recommend the Capenardo pass variant. Bad road surface but beautiful mountain environment, zero traffic.

Consiglio variante al colle di Capenardo. Cattivo fondo stradale ma bell'ambiente montano, traffico zero.
