You do the first part from Bormio too if you are going to do the Gavia. But instead of going to the tunnel in Santa Catarina, you turn directly left as you pass by the ski lift. Past a couple of hotels, a car park and the motorhome parking area, you drive almost straight into the steepness. From the first stretch it's actually quite steep and doesn't really level out. Parts of 18 per cent according to my Garmin make this relatively short climb quite tough, but it is still doable (for me with 34x34). The views are especially picture-perfect and at the top of the hut (actually more of a hotel), the terrace is great and the food is perfect. The heatproof is a nice man and the staff are friendly.

Het eerste stuk vanuit Bormio doe je ook als je de Gavia gaat doen. Maar in plaats van naar de tunnel in Santa Catarina ga je direct linksaf als je bij de skilift voorbij komt. Langs een paar hotels, een parkeerplaats en de camperparkeerplaats rij je al bijna direct de steilte in. Vanaf het eerste stuk is het eigenlijk best steil en wordt niet echt mee vlak. Stukjes van volgens mijn Garmin 18 procent maken deze relatief korte klim toch best zwaar, maar het blijft te doen (voor mij met 34x34). Het uitzicht is vooral beeldschoon en boven bij de hut (eigenlijk meer een hotel) is het goed toeven op het terras en het eten is er perfect. De hittebestendig is een aardige man en het personeel is vriendelijk.
