Salita molto inconstante, con strappi non indifferenti... Da affrontare con la giusta pazienza. Molto bello il castello una volta su

Very demanding but short hairpin climb, gradients often over 10％, the first wall is really uncomfortable, especially when hot.

Salita a tornanti molto impegnativa, ma corta, pendenze spesso oltre il 10％, il primo muro è veramente scomodo, specialmente se caldo.
