All in all a quiet ascent, fairly poor road but the worst is that there is no view at the top, quite disappointed and I do not recommend doing it... read more

Salita tutto sommato tranquilla, strada abbastanza scadente ma il peggio è che non c’è la vista in cima, abbastanza deluso e sconsiglio di farla

This needs to be modified. It makes sense to end the climb at km 10, just before the downhill section. The last kilometre, however, is forbidden to pass through because it is an army parade ground (the photo shows the prohibition sign at km 10.5). And when they do exercises (often), they shoot like there is no tomorrow. So no, it is not advisable to continue beyond that point. Otherwise, the Isone valley is a rather anonymous valley, surrounded by much more beautiful places.

Questa è da modificare. Ha senso terminare la salita al km 10, subito prima del tratto in discesa. L'ultimo km comunque è vietato al transito perché è piazza d'armi dell'esercito (la foto ritrae il cartello di divieto al km 10,5). E quando fanno esercitazioni (spesso), quelli sparano come se non ci fosse un domani. Quindi no, non è consigliabile proseguire oltre quel punto. Per il resto, la valle Isone è una valle piuttosto anonima, circondata da luoghi molto più belli.
