More challenging than the Ligurian side. More continuous in the gradients. It climbs with a panorama that gradually widens, although perhaps the wind turbines are a little too obvious.... read more

New asphalt almost all the way. The gradients are challenging, but very constant. It eases again near the top, and a good view too. Traffic is definitely not an issue

More challenging than the Ligurian side. More continuous in the gradients. It climbs with a panorama that gradually widens, although perhaps the wind turbines are a little too obvious.

Più impegnativa rispetto la versante ligure. Più continua nelle pendenze. Si sale con un panorama che si allarga via via, anche se forse le pale eoliche sono un po' troppo evidenti.
