Beautiful climb with a 7 km stretch to Teglio as a 'warm-up', the next 9 km are tough especially at the end but the view more than repays the effort, worth a try!

Long and demanding climb, especially in the final part, a little traffic only up to Teglio (first 7 km) then uphill in solitude. Road surface in good condition. Beautiful panorama. Absolutely to be done.
