a climb that surprised me a lot on this side. done on a wonderful day with clear skies, it offered breathtaking views. the first 3-4 km are very hard, practically always in double figures, but it's a beautiful part...a narrow road, several hairpin bends, zero traffic and a wonderful view of the lake. then it becomes less hard and alternates gentle stretches with not-too-long ramps. the valley opens up and there are views of green meadows. almost at the top the panoramic agueglio pass begins... read more

una salita che mi ha sorpreso molto da questo lato. fatta in una giornata meravigliosa con cielo limpido ha regalato panorami mozzafiato. i primi 3-4 km sono molto duri praticamente sempre in doppia cifra ma è un pezzo bellissimo...strada stretta, diversi tornanti, zero traffico e vista meravigliosa sul lago. poi diventa meno dura e alterna tratti dolci a rampe non troppo lunghe. la valle si apre e cis sono scorci su prati verdissimi. quasi in cima inizia la panoramica del passo agueglio che va avanti per alcuni km regalando scorci stupendi. una salita assolutamente imperdibile

From Riva Gittana, this known climb is steeper. Good views on the lake, last km are quiet and green, with a relaxing atmosphere before reacing the top (avoid Sundays).
