I usually don't consider this a separate climb but rather a segment to complete the climb to Sella Dei Generali. From the statue at Passo S.Barbara, this stretch of road takes you out from the forest and into the grazing fields around Sella dei Generali. With good weather there are sweeping views of the Pianura Padana from here - the elevation you reach is similar to that of nearby Monte Penice.
