Done by MTB several times, each time arriving more and more motivated...but each time bounced back! You have to be patient and ride nimbly, at the cost of increasing the frequency.... read more

Fatta in MTB più volte, ogni volta arrivando sempre più motivato…ma ogni volta rimbalzato! Bisogna avere tanta pazienza e andare su agili, a costo di aumentare la frequenza.

Variant in my opinion more interesting than the one up from Germagno. To be done as the first part of the fearsome ascent to Alpe Quaggione.

Variante a mio avviso più interessante rispetto a quella che sale da Germagno. Da fare come prima parte della temibile salita all'alpe Quaggione.
