The climb starts in Levanto and arrives at the Bracco pass, exposed to the sun for about 80% of the length. I did it on 11 August at 10am and the heat was already heavy. The asphalt is very good and the views of the sea are worth tackling with interest. Category 1, it has no difficult gradient changes, allowing you to maintain a steady pace.... read more

Nice climb with wonderful views of Levanto and Bonassola. Long stretches are exposed to the sun so avoid when it is too hot. The slope is regular like almost all climbs in the area and pleasant. Little traffic until the top where it can be joined to the Bracco pass to descend to Sestri levante or Moneglia or to return to Levanto via Mattarana

Bella salita con stupendi scorci su Levanto e Bonassola. Lunghi tratti sono esposti al sole quindi da evitare quando fa troppo caldo. La pendenza è regolare come quasi tutte le salite della zona e piacevole. Poco trafficata fino in cima dove si può congiungere al passo del Bracco per scendere verso Sestri levante o Moneglia oppure per tornare a Levanto via Mattarana

La salita parte da Levanto e arriva al passo del Bracco, esposta al sole per circa l’80% della lunghezza. L’ho fatta l’11 agosto alle 10.00 del mattino e il caldo era già pesante. L’asfalto è molto buono e i panorami sul mare che si possono ammirare valgono la pena di affrontarla con interesse. Categoria 1, non presenta cambi di pendenza difficile consentendo di mantenere un ritmo costante.
