Beautiful climb with really steep ramps. The lower section in particular is very consistently steep, after which it becomes more irregular. The road surface is ok, but there is virtually no traffic, especially in the upper section. There are always great views and a fantastic landscape. Highly recommended if you like small Italian mountain roads!... read more

Wunderschöner Anstieg mit wirklich steilen Rampen. Vor allem der untere Teil ist sehr konstant steil, danach wird es unregelmäßiger. Der Straßenbelag ist ok, dafür gibt es vor allem im oberen Teil quasi keinen Verkehr. Immer wieder tolle Ausblicke und eine tolle Landschaft. Sehr zu empfehlen, wenn man kleine italienische Bergstraßen mag!
