The climb, if you like, is similar to the Cuvignone, advisable for those who have the chance to do one first and then the other! It is less hard and less regular. There are two very hard climbs, at the start and at the finish. About 5km from the summit, the climb flattens out for a few hundred metres. The little church at the summit is beautiful, but to reach it, there is the final climb well above 15%. Although very very short. Super sore note: done 4 times, twice I punctured on the descent 😞 an unbelievable average but hearing it has happened to many!!! Too dirty with pebbles
La salita se vogliamo è simile al Cuvignone, consigliabile per chi avesse la possibilità di fare prima uno e poi l'altro! Troppo sporca di sassolini. Dei tre versanti il più duro è Mesenzana, invece da Casalzuigno o scendendo dal Cuvignone si fanno proprio pochi km anche se molto intensi
Nice climb, with a rideable first section up to the junction for San Michele, then decidedly harder, although not excessively so. There are many shady sections, and the road surface is quite good. Shortly after the pass there is the Ristoro San Michele where you can take a break and also have a look at the little church. The descent towards Mesenzana is technical and the road surface decidedly ruined, so be careful. In any case, given the practically non-existent traffic, it is well worth a ride.
Bella salita, con un primo tratto pedalabile fino al bivio per San Michele, poi decisamente più dura, anche se non eccessivamente. Tanti i tratti in ombra, e il fondo stradale è abbastanza buono. Poco dopo il passo c’è il Ristoro San Michele dove si può fare una sosta e dare un’occhiata anche alla chiesetta. La discesa versa Mesenzana è tecnica e il fondo stradale decisamente rovinato, quindi attenzione. In ogni caso, dato il traffico praticamente inesistente, merita un giro.
