A short but satisfying climb, it is challenging in some sections but worth doing, at one point you have a good view. The road to the top is paved and in good condition and there is little traffic, I recommend doing it at least once.... read more

Salita breve ma soddisfacente, in alcuni tratti è impegnativa ma vale la pena farla, in un punto si ha una discreta vista. La strada fino in cima è asfaltata e in buone condizioni e c’è poco traffico, consiglio di farla almeno una volta.

Most cyclists in the region choose to ride up to Mergoscia or Monte Brè nearby. But this is the real hidden gem: steep and traffic-free. Halfway up (Tendrasca) there are a few flat metres of, exactly at the point where you have a splendid view of Lago Maggiore and a restaurant. You'll find another (more deserved) refreshment at the top.
The best time to climb is in summer (early morning or evening).
