The climb is challenging, and the average gradient can be misleading: there are stretches where it almost flattens out alternating with sections that are more or less flat.
The first section was the most tiring for me, as it is not protected by trees and, having tackled it at lunchtime in August, I suffered quite a bit from the heat. Then you enter the forest and continue pleasantly.
The quality of the road surface is just sufficient, and there are no problems on the ascent, but on the descent it was a bit of a struggle (at least with a mountain bike, people with mountain bikes overtook me without any problems).
Traffic was almost non-existent, probably also due to the fact that once up there are no other paved roads.
At the top there is a refuge where you can get some refreshments.
The views are nice, but other climbs in the area offer much better.
Climbing at about 3.13w/kg took me one hour and 5min.
An ascent that I recommend if you are passing through, otherwise there are others in the area that I think deserve more
La salita è impegnativa, la pendenza media può trarre in inganno: ci sono tratti in cui quasi spiana alternati a settori >10％.
Il primo tratto è stato per me il più faticoso, infatti non è protetto dagli alberi ed avendolo affrontato all'ora di pranzo ad agosto ho sofferto non poco il caldo. Poi si entra nel bosco e si prosegue piacevolmente.
La qualità del manto stradale è appena sufficiente, non presenta problemi in salita ma in discesa c'è stato un po' da tribolare (quantomeno con una bdc, gente con mtb mi ha superato senza problemi).
Traffico quasi inesistente, probabilmente anche complice il fatto che, una volta su, non ci siano altre vie asfaltate.
In cima c'è un rifugio dove potersi rifocillare.
I panorami sono carini, ma altre salite in zona regalano molto di meglio.
Salendo a circa 3,13w/kg ho impiegato un'ora e 5min.
Salita che consiglio se se è di passaggio, altrimenti ce ne sono altre in zona che penso meritino di più
Did this climb on a full-suspension mtb. Was punchy, but doable.
You mainly ride some open sections at first. Soon you go between the trees, leaving little view. This remains so until just before the summit. Score for the scenery: 3/5.
Overall, the road is good. On a few stretches, you will have to pick your way a bit as the tarmac is a bit battered. Score 4/5.
Traffic density is minimal. Five cars passed me in total. Score 5/5.
The climb itself is fairly even, with some outliers here and there in the double digits. On a road bike it will be a bit easier than on a heavy (16kg) mountain bike.
Heb deze klim gedaan op een full-suspension mtb. Was pittig, maar goed te doen.
Je rijdt in het begin vooral wat open stukken. Al snel ga je tussen de bomen, waardoor er weinig uitzicht is. Dit blijft zo tot net voor de top. Score voor de omgeving: 3/5.
Over het algemeen is de weg goed. Op enkele stukken zul je je weg een beetje moeten kiezen omdat het asfalt wat gehavend is. Score 4/5.
Verkeersdrukte is miniem. Vijf auto’s zijn me in totaal gepasseerd. Score 5/5.
De klim zelf is redelijk gelijkmatig, met hier en daar wat uitschieters in de dubbele getallen. Op een racefiets zal het wat makkelijker gaan dan op een zware (16kg) mountainbike.
