Caution. This section of the road is closed due to a landslide. As of today (15 May 2025), there is no information about the reopening date.
To descend Roccolo from the south, there is an alternative. And it consists of taking via Pedevenda a few hundred metres before reaching the Roverello pass from the east. But it is a very difficult section, with a final segment at 25％ that makes it very difficult to climb on a racing bike.

Attenzione. Questo tratto di strada è chiuso per frana. Ad oggi (15 Maggio 2025) non si hanno informazioni sulla data di riapertura.
Per scollinare il Roccolo da Sud un'alternativa c'è. E consiste nel prendere via Pedevenda pche centinaia di metri prima di arrivare al passo Roverello da est. Ma è un tratto difficilissimo, con un segmento finale al 25％ che rende molto difficile salire in bici da corsa.

The southern slope of Roccolo does not enjoy the same fame as the northern one, being shorter and less demanding. It begins at the Roverello Pass (which can be reached from Galzignano or Faedo) and after an initial downhill section, climbs progressively, touching double-digit gradients only at the end. There are some interesting panoramic views in the woods and the presence of a small church halfway along the route. The asphalt is undoubtedly better than on the opposite side.

Il versante Sud del Roccolo non gode della stessa fama di quello Nord, essendo più corto e meno impegnativo. Inizia al passo del Roverello (raggiungibile da Galzignano o da Faedo) e dopo un tratto iniziale in discesa sale progressivamente toccando pendenza in doppia cifra solo nel finale. Interessante qualche scorcio panoramico nel bosco e la presenza di una Chiesetta a metà percorso. L'asfalto è senz'altro migliore rispetto al versante opposto.
