Super climb in gradient and difficulty point of view. Did in autumn when heavy rain just hit for couple of days. Road little slippery. Scenery incredible. Little too much traffic the first half but light on the second half.

Beautiful, made the spring of 2021 for the arrival of the Giro d'Italy stage. Obviously the atmosphere of the race, the closure to traffic and the people at the arrival made it special, but it is worth the climb. The old road to Madesimo is hard, while the last part to Alpe Motta is quite easy.

Bella, fatta la primavera del 2021 per l'arrivo di tappa Tappa del Giro d'Italia. Ovviamente l'atmosfera della gara, la chiusura al traffico e la gente all'arrivo l'ha resa speciale, ma vale la pensa farsi la scalata. Strada vecchia per Madesimo duretta, mentre l'ultimo pezzo per l'Alpe Motta abbastanza facile
