It is the most improbable route up the Melogno. It is long and very uneven, with tears and long faslopians. And even some descents. However, it is varied and almost traffic-free. Unusual and somewhat surreal is Lake Osiglia.... read more

Bella!!!! The reviews are not so positive but nevertheless it has its why. Certainly not as beautiful as going up from the sea. Much easier from here, however strangely good asphalt. Zero traffic. Let's say only in the last 6/7 km it climbs but always maximum 5％. The lake a spectacle

Bella!!!! Le recensioni non sono così positive ma tuttavia ha il suo perché. Certamente non bella come salire dal mare. Di qui molto più facile, però asfalto stranamente buono. Traffico nullo. Diciamo che solo negli ultimi 6/7 km si sale ma sempre massimo 5％. Il lago uno spettacolo

Road with little traffic and good road surface, travelled in fog due to low clouds

Strada poco trafficata e con buon fondo stradale, percorsa in mezzo alla nebbia per nuvole basse

An ascent where getting into a good rhythm is not easy as it is divided into three sections interspersed with even long flat stretches and even a short descent at the top. However, the scenery is pleasant and the gradients not too challenging, so overall it's not bad.

Salita in cui prendere un buon ritmo non è facilissimo in quanto è divisa in tre sezioni intervallate da tratti pianeggianti anche lunghi e perfino da una breve discesa nella parte alta. Comunque i paesaggi sono piacevoli e le pendenze non troppo impegnative, complessivamente non è male.

Strange climb, very uneven, with the last section steep.
A climb that did not blow me away.

Salita strana, molto irregolare, con l'ultimo pezzo ripido.
Una salita che non mi ha fatto impazzire.

E' la via più improbabile per salire al Melogno. Lunga e molto irregolare, con strappi e lunghi faslopiani. E perfino qualche discesa. Comunque è vario e quasi senza traffico. Inusuale e un po' surreale il lago di Osiglia.
