I have tackled this climb a couple of times never going beyond the village of Tartano. The first section up to Campo (altitude 1050) climbs steadily with gradients varying between 6-8％ after which there is a long false flat. The panorama over the lower Valtellina to Lake Como just outside the forest before Campo is exceptional. Avoid the weekend as the stratta is narrow and very busy due to the Tibetan bridge built in the village of Campo.
Ho affrontato questa salita un paio di volte non andando mai oltre il paese di Tartano. Il primo tratto fino a Campo (quota 1050) sale costantemente con pendenze che variano sul 6-8％ dopo di che si passa ad un lungo falso piano. Eccezionale il panorama sulla bassa Valtellina fino al lago di Como appena fuori dal bosco prima di Campo. Evitare il week-end visto che la stratta è stretta e molto trafficata per via del ponte tibetano costruito a nel paese di Campo.
