A good climb, the first part to get out of the town and into the forest is harder. Good road surface, you then begin a false flat with alternating moderate gradients and then pick up again in the final part leading to the finish with more severe gradients in the last 3km.
Not an extraordinary climb but far from traffic and surrounded by nature, at the top the dead-end road and a good fountain await you! View of the peaks of Lake Como (Bisbino etc).
If you are in the vicinity a good alternative to the usual tour!
Una buona salita, la prima parte per uscire dal centro abitato ed immergersi nel bosco è più duro. Manto stradale buono, si inizia poi un falso piano con alternanza di pendenze contenute per poi riprendere nella parte finale che conduce al finale con pendenze più severe negli ultimi 3km.
Una salita non straordinaria ma lontana dal traffico ed immersi nella natura, in cima vi attende la strada senza uscita ed una buona Fontana! Vista sulle cime del lago di Como (Bisbino etc).
Se si è nei paraggi una valida alternativa al solito giro!
