Very nice, scenic climb. Not too heavy in the first part, the last few kilometres have some slightly more challenging parts. At the point where the pass is, there is a lay-by with a view of the entire lake, suitable for a rest.

Salita molto bella panoramica. Non troppo pesante nella prima parte, gli ultimi km hanno alcuni pezzi un po’ più impegnativi. Nel punto in cui c’è il passo si trova una piazzola con vista su tutto il lago adatta per una sosta.

Stunning climb with fantastic views of the lake, Bellagio and the valley you ride up through. When you reach the summit you are massively rewarded.

A fantastic climb, long...but what views!!! At every hairpin bend you can enjoy the beauty of the lake below. Up to Esino the climb is regular without tears, then the gradients become more aggressive and the climb is not very regular. At the top there is a falsopiano before the viewpoint. Excellent road surface. A must do!!!

Una salita fantastica, lunga...ma che panorami!!! Ad ogni tornante si gode di tutta la bellezza del lago sottostante. Fino ad Esino si sale regolare senza strappi, poi le pendenze si fanno più aggressive e la salita è poco regolare. In cima c'è un falsopiano prima del punto panoramico. Ottimo manto stradale. Da fare!!!

Simply beautiful.
If you are around and you want a calm ride/climb without traffic, please go for it. You will not be disappointed: the landscape is simply breathtaking.

The climbing is long but not hard if we exclude the stiff parts while crossing Esino Lario.
I climbed from Varenna and down to Cortenova to get on road to Alpe Paglio (that's hard, guys!)
Asphalt is generally in good conditions while climbing and a bit bad while downhilling.
Hope to have the chance to make it again sooner or later

For those looking for a nice climb with little traffic and a beautiful view of Lake Como at the top, this is perfect. Pay attention to the descent towards Valsassina, because the asphalt is in not good conditions.

Per chi cerca una bella salita con poco traffico e un bellissimo panorama sul lago di Como in cima, questa è perfetta. Attenzione alla discesa verso la Valsassina, perchè l'asfalto è in condizioni non buone
