Long, rideable climb, open views and little shade. The hairpin bends in the middle of the climb are close together and in some ways fascinating, some long straights are more boring, however. From the Col you can reach the Alta Valle Scrivia and climb toward Torriglia or descend toward Montoggio and Casella for a loop ride, otherwise it's also worth getting to the top and back to close a short but challenging ride!

Long, rideable climb, open views and little shade. The hairpin bends in the middle of the climb are close together and in some ways fascinating, some long straights are more boring, however. From the Col you can reach the Alta Valle Scrivia and climb toward Torriglia or descend toward Montoggio and Casella for a loop ride, otherwise it's also worth getting to the top and back to close a short but challenging ride! Downhill certainly not the best asphalt in Liguria but not among the worst either!

Salita lunga e pedalabile, vista aperta e poca ombra. I tornanti a metà salita sono ravvicinati e per certi versi affascinanti, alcuni lunghi drittoni sono invece più noiosi. Dal Colle si raggiunge l'Alta Valle Scrivia e salire verso Torriglia o scendere verso Montoggio e Casella per un giro ad anello, altrimenti merita anche arrivare in cima e tornare indietro per chiudere un giro corto ma impegnativo! In discesa non certo il migliore asfalto della Liguria ma nemmeno tra i peggiori!

Quite a long climb, but an interesting one to work on, with a beautiful panoramic view at the top.

Montée assez longue, mais intéressante pour travailler avec un beau panoramique au sommet
