A nice climb, easy start and then a pretty steady climb. Road is generally fine, there is some traffic but nothing out of the ordinary. The last 5k or so are in the forest with plenty of shade.... read more

A pleasant climb that allows you to avoid the traffic on the main road up from Gorra in the first part. Beautiful scenery and steady gradients, with a flat section between Tovo and Magliolo that does not break the rhythm.

Salita piacevole che permette di evitare, nella prima parte, il traffico della via principale che sale da Gorra. Bel paesaggio e pendenze costanti, con un tratto pianeggiante tra Tovo e Magliolo che però non spezza il ritmo.
