A very long climb if you take it from Lanzo, up to Balme it is a quiet and constant climb without too many climbs, from after the entrance to Balme the gradients rise a little, almost all in double figures.
Beautiful views and you can also stop at the Pian della Mussa brewery for a nice cold beer

Salita molto lunga se si prende da Lanzo, fino a Balme salita tranquilla e costante senza troppi strappi, da dopo l'ingresso a Balme salgono un po' le pendenze quasi tutti in doppia cifra
Bellissimi panorami e ci si può anche fermare alla birreria Pian della Mussa per una bella Birra fresca e buona

A beautiful, panoramic climb. It starts at the beautiful Ceres station and begins to climb slowly with a couple of hairpin bends at Alta and Mondrone.
After Balme there are four hairpin bends that allow you to quickly rise in altitude before reaching the signpost. From there there are another 3km or so of flat terrain with the final climb to the Rifugio. Very beautiful views, easy to see ibexes around.

Una bella salita panoramica. Parte dalla bella stazione di Ceres e inizia a salire pian piano con un paio di strappi ad Alta e Mondrone.
Dopo Balme ci sono 4 tornanti che permettono di alzarsi velocemente di quota prima di arrivare al cartello. Da lì ci sono altri 3km circa di piano con lo strappo finale per arrivare al Rifugio. Panorami molto belli, facile vedere Stambecchi in giro.
