I tried it and gave up, it's too hard! Up to Maglioggio the gradients are not impossible, in fact they are the easiest considering what lies ahead. Once past the crossroads there is a barrier and from there it is 2 km at 18% average. Then you come to a bridge and do two small hairpin bends at 30%, and there I gave up because it was too hard. I don't recommend doing it with a racing bike with heavy gears.... read more

Ho provato a farla e mi sono arreso, è troppo dura!
Fino a Maglioggio le pendenze non sono impossibili, anzi le più semplici considerando quello che c'è dopo.
Superato il bivio c'è una sbarra e da li ci sono 2 Km al 18% di media. Poi si arrivia a un ponte e si fanno due piccoli tornanti al 30%, e li mi sono arreso perché era troppo dura. La sconsiglio da fare con una bici da corsa con cambi pesanti.

Tough climb but the fine effort amply repaid during the ride
Road closed to traffic with barrier from Crego
The asphalt is in good condition, but you have to be very careful on the descent as there are considerable gradients.
Also worth the loop tour crodo maglioggio crego premia to see the Devil's Wall

Salita dura ma la fatica fine ampiamente ripagata durante la pedalata
Strada chiusa al traffico con sbarra da Crego
Asfalto in buone condizioni ma anche in discesa dato,le pendenze notevoli bisogna stare molto attenti
Merita anche il giro ad anello crodo maglioggio crego premia per vedere il muro del Diavolo
