I report that the road from Lanzo to the end of the climb has been resurfaced and is in good condition.

Segnalo che la strada da Lanzo fino alla fine della salita è stata riasfaltata ed è in buono stato.

The view would be 5/5 stars. The minus point is to point out the poor condition of the road from Lanzo to the summit. However, the climb is well worth it. Really demanding up to Arogno, then a short stretch to rest, then another 3/4 hairpin bends even with peaks at 20%. From Lanzo regular climb for the last 5 km around 7%. Really spectacular, watch out on the descent for potholes

La vista sarebbe da 5/5 stelle. Il punto in meno è per segnalare la pessima condizione della strada da Lanzo alla vetta. Merita comunque la salita. Davvero impegnativa fino ad Arogno, poi breve tratto per rifiatare , poi ancora 3/4 tornanti anche con picchi al 20%. Da Lanzo salita regolare per gli ultimi 5 km intorno al 7%. Davvero spettacolare, attenzione in discesa per le buche

Nice climb through characteristic villages. Beautiful nature. At the end of the climb the road surface is bad but the view is really phenomenal. Recommended.

Leuke klim door karakteristieke dorpjes. Mooie natuur. Op einde van de klim slecht wegdek maar goed uitzicht is op het einde echt fenomenaal. Aanrader.
