Nice discovery!!! After the knoll, I ventured up a road through the cool forest. Minimal traffic, beautiful little village where you arrive. Possibility of refilling water as well. Never a difficult climb, except for a few last stretches before Bajardo towards the 8％

lovely single lane climb up to the pass just short of bajardo village. lots of shade, non- drinking cold water trough by side of road (to splash onesslf). the medieval ceriano village near half way up was beautiful, great spot for un expresso & cornetto!
