It's a lot of fun, with lots of twists and turns. The first half is easy to swallow but the second half is quite long. We're happy to reach the summit after 30 kilometres of climbing, which is quite long. The view from the small plateau on the second descent is really nice.... read more

Très sympa, ça serpente beaucoup et on s'y amuse facilement. La première moitié s'avale facilement mais la deuxième est assez longue. On est content d'arriver au sommet après 30 bornes de montée, c'est assez long. A noter que la vue est vraiment sympa sur le petit plateau qui se trouve lors de la deuxième descente.

Long but fairly easy ascent; along the route there is a small lake below Monte Sirente and cattle pastures. Very little traffic, beautiful views of Monte Sirente. Arrival in Rocca di Mezzo, a tourist resort on the Altipiano delle Rocche.

Salita lunga ma abbastanza facile; lungo il percorso presente un laghetto sotto il Monte Sirente e pascoli di bovini. Pochissimo traffico, bella vista del Monte Sirente. Arrivo a Rocca di Mezzo, località turistica dell'Altipiano delle Rocche.
