Challenging climb, shorter than on the Mezzenile side but the last few kilometers are of analogy difficulty. Fortunately they are also the ones with the most beautiful environment, a wonderful green basin surrounded by mountains, with a few boxes here and there. Enjoy this beautiful view because then begins the last part, very steep and continuous, which does not let up until the Col.... read more

Salita impegnativa, più breve rispetto al versante di Mezzenile ma gli ultimi chilometri sono di analogy difficoltà. Per fortuna sono anche quelli dall'ambiente più bello, una stupendo conca verde contornata da montagne, con qualche cassetta qua e là. Godetevi questa bella vista perché poi comincia l'ultima parte, molto ripida e continua, che non molla fino al Colle.

Great climb, tough, many 13％-14％ points.
The last kilometre and a half really heavy, the altimetry doesn't give much idea. For the last 300m, the computer was still reading 13％. The descent that has just been resurfaced for long stretches (and is in the process of being resurfaced at the moment) is fun with nice, rideable bends. Little traffic and therefore even safer.
Highly recommended for a good challenge.

Gran bella salita, tosta, molti punti sui 13％-14％.
L'ultimo km e mezzo veramente pesante, l'altimetria non rende molto l'idea. Negli ultimi 300m il computerino segnava sempre 13％. La discesa appena riasfalata per lunghi tratti (e in fase di posa di nuovo asfalto al momento) è divertente con curve belle e pedalabili. Poco trafficata e quindi anche più sicura.
Consigliatissima per una bella sfida.

Tough climb, particularly in two places, the most visible at the fork leading to the summit. More rideable than the ascent from the Mezzenile side, but the descent is more beautiful going up the other side. The road surface on the descent is worse. However, the views are splendid, the road is more scenic on this side, the road surface is so-so, but uphill it feels less so. Recommended for those who have already climbed from the other side to vary it a little.

Salita bella tosta, in particolare in due punti, il più visibile al bivio che porta in cima. Più pedalabile rispetto alla salita dal versante di Mezzenile, però la discesa è più bella salendo dall'altra parte. Il manto stradale in discesa è peggiore. Comunque i panorami sono splendidi, la strada è più panoramica ad questa parte, il manto stradale è così così, ma in salita si sente di meno. Consigliata per chi è già salito dall'altro versante per variare un po'.
