Very nice environment from Vico. If you look back you see the sea and the capricious peaks on your right. The round via Porto and Piana is worthwhile. Approximately 100 km it is then. The last km of the climb is quite straight and continuously 11％ steep. It is a guarantee for a high maximum speed if you descend via this side.... read more

Climb is great for good throttle. Fairly regular climb apart from a few steep sections. Tarmac is in good shape and definitely recommended to take the goat path to the real summit at the top. From there you have beautiful views!

Klim is heerlijk om goed gas te geven. Redelijk regelmatige klim op een paar steile stukken na. Asfalt ligt er goed bij en zeker een aanrader om op de top nog even het geitenpaadje naar de echte top te nemen. Vanaf daar heb je mooie uitzichten!

Did this on a day when not feeling good and was hot and windy. I found it unusually tough with ‘The Wall’ coming out of Vicu particularly brutal (steeper than 9％?). The last 2 - 3 km also very tough but the run down to Cristinacce is beautiful and worth the effort. I continued to Evisa and back to Porto. Also stunning!

Nice regular climb. At the end, it gets a lot steeper. The whole climb we were chased by snake eagles and joined at the top by the occasional boar. The descent to Porto also provides fantastic pictures with incredible views. a must do if you are in the area.

Mooie regelmatige klim. Aan het eind wordt het een stuk steiler. De hele klim zijn we achtervolgd door slangenarenden en bovenop vergezeld door een enkele zwijn. De afdaling naar Porto levert ook fantastische plaatjes op met ongelofelijke vergezichten. een must do als je in de buurt bent.

Only travelled on the section from Vico, it is a wide road that can be a little busy, but pleasant and quite hard on the final ramps.

Percorsa solo nel tratto da Vico, si tratta di una strada ampia che può essere un po' trafficata, comunque piacevole e abbastanza dura nelle rampe finali.

If you have the choice, you should do the climb from Porto. It is insanely beautiful.

From Sagone you first drive on a busy boring road to Vico. From Vico on, it gets better but not many nice views. The wall and the last km's are tough.

Als je de keuze hebt, moet je de beklimming vanuit Porto doen. Die is krankzinnig mooi.

Vanuit Sagone rijdt je eerst op een drukke saaie weg naar Vico. Vanaf Vico wordt het beter maar weinig mooie vergezichten. De muur en de laatste km's zijn pittig.

Nice climb on good asphalt. After the roundabout there is the wall of Vico. Although the name suggests otherwise, the steepness is not so bad. I found the last few kilometers to the top with percentages continuous >10％ quite exhausting.

Mooie klim over goed asfalt. Na de rotonde volgt "de muur van Vico". Hoewel de naam anders doet vermoeden valt de steilheid mee. Ik vond de laatste kilometers naar de top met percentages continue >10％ wel slopend.

Heel mooie omgeving vanaf Vico. Als je achterom kijkt zie je de zee en de grillige pieken aan je rechterkant. Het rondje via Porto en Piana is de moeite waard. Ongeveer 100 km wordt het dan. De laatste km van de klim is vrij recht en continu 11％ steil. Garantie voor een hoge maximale snelheid als je via deze kant afdaalt.
